After watching Alex Salmonds press briefing yesterday morning and his exchange with Nick Robinson, which was shown live on BBC News 24. I wondered how self confessed Tory Nick Robinson would edit it together for the main evening News bulletin. Tory boy Nick didin't disappoint, never let the facts get in the way of a good story as they say. Only problem is that the BBC who are funded by us the T...

Martyn Bennett 1971-2005 Martyn playing his tunes from the Greentrax CD - A Grand Concert of Scottish Piping, Tunes - The Magic Flute (Air), Mary Kelly's, Glesca' Tabla, Belle's Fancy
This shit makes me think not just YES but FUCK YES
This is a recording from a CD on greentrax, called A Grand Concert of Piping. These two tracks were all that Martyn played on. Martyns own CD's were Martyn Bennett, Bothy Culture, Hardland, Glen Lyon & Grit. His composition MacKay's memoirs which was commisioned for the opening of the Scottish Parliment building was recorded by Edinburgh City Music School. I beleive Scottish Power Pipe Band may be releasing a version of it as well. Martyn recorded a wide variety of music, true genious sadly lost
This is brilliant! I've only heard his Bothy Culture stuff, this man is a legend! Sadly missed indeed! I hope him and Gordon Duncan are having a jam! Did he release any of this stuff?
16 years of age and was playing like that...this guy was something else, such a loss R.I.P
this guy changed everything! punk n reggae ting n tha, know he's still at it!...control! forwards and thanks!
Martyn you were damn brilliant - what a terrible loss to all!
I had never heard of Martyn Bennet until I came across him, on You-Tube. What a maestro! The deep tone of the pipes sounds right. Someone told me that centuries ago they had a deeper tone because the cane for the reeds came from Inverewe, Good enough for the job, but it did not dry out and so produced a deeper tone . True or false, anyone?
When I asked him in 2002 by e-mail for sheet music, he answered that there weren't any. He also wrote, "...but the best way to learn it is to sing it! That is the honest truth - if you can't sing it then it won't transfer to the fingers - try it".
anyone knows where I can get the sheet music for the magic flute?? I love that tune =)
@kissmylovegun1 especially if he's in the New York Groove ;-)
@fannybaw7 He's sliding up from B and playing the half hole to get C nat.
@bravygravy Just checked the sleeve notes and you are right, concert was from 10th Nov 1995, don't know why I thought it was much earlier than that
Hate to be pedantic with such stunning music and a tragic loss but the timeline doesn't look right. The concert these tracks came from was in 1995. At 16 Martyn would have been entrenched in studying classical violin.
@fannybaw7 Martyn played a set of Hamish Moore smallpipes
Thanks for posting this. I met Martyn once, briefly. A delightful man. Sadly missed. Bless him wherever he may be. What a brilliant piper.
That was badass - thanks for putting that up!
