Hector the Hero is the well-known traditional Scottish Air written by James Scott Skinner and played in the key of A. What a haunting melody!
The full lesson includes sheet music, guitar backup tracks, multiple instructional videos, A/B video looping, video speed controls, and MP3 audio downloads.
This is the best version I’ve ever heard - moving but not overwrought. Truly inspiring!
I love this version, as you may already know. It takes quite a master of the bow to play a tune so well. This is coming from a regular listener who purchased “Silver”. Thanks for so many wonderful videos, and that goes for the whole team. 😊 ❤. T. Ferris
My name is Hector and I approve this song!
Thank you.
Overcoming with grace and charm . Captivating everything Scottish , and the Gaelic feeling that is demonstrated here is forever haunting . Music from the soul to the listeners privileged heart . Sadness and beauty intertwined .
Only 806 likes for something so beautiful. The world has gone blind to true beauty. What a shame.
I don't know how to play, but I do love your talent and this song is hauntingly beautiful. Thank you so much for sharing it.
Love, love, love this performance💕💕💕 Such a beautiful song and the rich tone from your violin is wonderful💎 Thank you Hanneke🙏
Just wonderful! I'm learning this tune on the pipes - but this is just perfect! I could play this all day long - reminds me of folk long gone now - faces now only in photograghs - god bless them all.
+Russ McPherson my favorite tune on the pipes without a doubt!!
Brought a tear to my eyes, you are a fine player young lady, thank you.
What a beautiful tune! I can't tell you how glad I am to see your playing and technique on UA-cam, now that I've taken lessons from you at fiddle camp!
Awesome! Keep working on those exercises we talked about!
Simply extraordinary. I always listen to it several times in a row and always notice something new.
This was just gorgeous. And I don't just mean the song; the performance was really emotionally charged. I loved it.
Thanks, Daniel. Hanneke Cassel is a great talent, and we're so thrilled she's a part of this journey. She's fairly awesome. Stay tuned for more from Hanneke, Casey, and more instructors.
I love, love, love this piece and the beautiful way you play it makes it even better! I could listen to it all day!
Wow, I keep coming back to this video to hear such lovely playing!
I started playing 28 years ago. I decided to learn the song. So many variation on the internet but I've decided I'm gonna learn it the way you play it, or at least as close as I can mimic it. Well played. You really have a lovely way of playing music.
What a beautiful rich tone you have, Hanneke!
One of my favourite tunes. It was played at my son's funeral 24 years ago, and again at my uncles funeral a couple of years ago, by Tommy and Siobhan Peoples, my daughter and ex.
Maria Peoples Thanks, Maria. It is a timeless melody, for sure. So haunting.
Hanneke plays it beautifully. No one played it like Tommy Peoples. RIP
I am sorry that it has to be associated with a sadness of a funeral, but I also am fairly certain its tones bring a salve to the heart strings and coax sweet memories into following.
That was the most beautiful thing I have ever heard....I learned this tune but being a beginner, it doesn't exactly sound like that when I play it...lol.
Beautiful, and greetings from Scotland.
Best version around bar none. How come when I try to play it, it sounds more like Hector The Hernia?
🤣🤣🤣
Me too for sure
What an incredibly enchanting tune played so beautifully by you Hanneke. Its an honor. I shall endeavor to play this arrangement on C 256 tuned guitar. You inspire me to explore Scottish fiddle.
Nossa... é a versão mais linda dessa música que já vi alguém tocar... você é incrível com seu violino! Parabéns... fantástico 👍
Absolutely beautiful. Well done!
So beautiful and moving - thank you so much!
Beautiful to listen to and look at!! Well done violin and guitar; bravo!!
This is just amazingly beautiful! The tune itself, but also the way Hanneke plays it. just got tears in my eyes. So pure and emotional! many thanks!
One of my most favorite tunes on the bagpipes. Your talents are seamlessand most heart-reaching. Thanks much! GaelicDrummer1
So lovely ! Great playing!!!
Thank you for this beautiful song/lesson. I want to play this pronto! :)
Beautiful playing.
Thats beautiful, such a simple tune, like most on violin, but so dificult to play, and sound good.
i dunno what can be better than fiddle
Just fantastic stuff. Wolfstones performance of it at the Aberdeen Music Hall. Out of this world.
Hanneke you just turn out my soul with hector and sitting, i picked down the notes and practicing trying your cut or grace .......
This is so beautiful, you’re an amazing player, love your feel! Definitely inspired to learn this one 💕
Beautifully played and well presented Charlie. I don’t have this tune in my repertoire but shall learn it by ear from your video today. Thank you yet again for the online music.
You have wonderful style with your fiddle.
So !lovely .❤❤❤
Superbe et merci
Beautiful!
I'd love to play music with someone else who plays with this kind of love for this type of music. I bet she's written songs we haven't heard yet.
Amazing video! You are an a great talent!! Learnt now from this video now to play the tune on a diatonic harmonica 1st position (2 octaves).
Beautifully played, fantastic lesson series. Will listen to a few more of these for sure.
Tommy people's version of this tune is worth a listen Tommy and Siobhan together would be might indeed.
I had the pleasure to listen to them in maddens bar in Belfast it was simply fantastic.
Beautiful.
totally heart clenching. wow.
Sweet !

This is a wonderful piece. Well done. I am enjoying your fiddle postings. Learning from your ideas. Nice work. Thanks much!

+quillj going to be playing this on sunday 8th Nov at Cambridge City Rememberance day for Royal British Legion;
+Russ McPherson Awesome, Russ. Wish we could hear it...post a video later and tag us so we can enjoy??
+FIDDLEVIDEO I will do my best, need to find someone to hold the camera! just love this tune; will be working it in with mist covered mountain, the pipers lament and the day thou gavest lord has ended; seems like a good combination ........ better get blowing those pipes!
Awesome. I love to play this on the low whistle, accompanying a fiddle player and guitarist.
So do I but it's difficult to keep the slow tempo displayed here.
Your violin is so warm it sounds like a viola!
Great tone
Wunderschön.
amazing :)))
Beautiful lament for 'Fighting Mac', Major General Sir Hector Archibald MacDonald KCB DSO. Born at Rootfield near Dingwall, Ross-Shire, in the Scottish Highlands. Well played here, personally I play it in D.
Told by the king to shoot himself rather than face a court-martial for being gay.....
I hope she does a lesson on her song "Trip to Walden Pond". Such an amazing, delightful tune.
She did, Mark!
wooow its very beautifl
Thanks
I think .-- no --- I am in love with you beautiful lady. I am so inspired. Hanneke Cassel. Thanks.
R.I.P GENERAL HECTOR MACDONALD !!!
our reels here in quebec have a colour but i like your personnel colours.xx
Thanks..
What kind of strings do you use ? The sound is clean, and mellow...
Guð minn góður svo heimskur að þú getur ekki verið eða selt þá kemur til okkar
How do you get that wonderful sound from the violin? It appears that you are playing a acoustic violin and not an electric, is that correct? I love the warm sultry sound how do u do that???❤️😃🤷🏻♀️🎻
Also I noticed you have a jack attached to your violin is that a microphone? Are you playing into an amplifier?🥺❤️Is that giving it an electric violin sound?
@@lifewithjimmy4389 Hi, LwJ. The main audio is captured with some high-end recording mics out of camera frame. The on-board fiddle mic & jack you see are used to add some reverb. But mainly it's a studio recording capture. All the best!
What is the make of Hanneke and Casey's violin and strings used?
Hanneke's violin is made by Bob Childs.
Does anyone know the song playing at the ending sequence?

Did anyone ever write lyrics to that tune? If not, I think it's time I did...lol. To nice a tune to not have lyrics. Metal Man is another tune which devoid of lyrics. But Hector definitely needs to be sung not just played.

Sad, sweet, thoughtful, a little uplifting too; & very well played to boot! Thanks!
