- Documentary exploring the musical links between Scotland, Ulster & America.
The first episode looks at how Scottish music & songs travelled to Ulster with the Scottish Presbyterian settlers of the 1600's where it was absorbed to became an important part of the culture for Ulster-Scots (Scots-Irish). Later they would take this music to Appalachia as colonial immigrants to America.
Thanks to programs such as this, I wear my Scottish-Irish heritage like a badge. People here in the States, many people don't realize just how strong the ties between the Scots and Irish really are, and how deep they go. I am a piper, a gift passed to me by my grandfather, and when I play, I march with the pride that only a piper can feel.
Rhiannon Giddens. What a voice!
The most happy and tragic music ever made. Always feel it in my bones when I hear it. I'm 100% Americanized over many generations since the 1600's. My family names as far back as I know were Reed, Webb, Canterbury, Wallace, Fingston, Donnelly and Campbell. I was weaned on Elvis and Buddy Holly. Grew up to be a metal head and prog rock fanatic. Never listened to this stuff until I matured and went to my first Irish Festival. The energy, passion, beat and soulfulness of the music blew my mind.
It was 1000 times more fun than any of the big concerts I'd ever went to.
Wow ... her singing Wayfaring Stranger at min 6 just gave me goosebumps and tears .. unbelievable voice and execution! ❤️
skubytube She’s Rhiannon Giddens. Imo her’s is the perfect voice for it .. full of power, pathos and passion!
She is one of my favorite singers.
She can also sing in Gaelic
Thanks to this program I now know why I was raised Presbyterian! This is all from my mother's side of my family. All my Scottish and Irish blood. You can read the rest just below. Althea.
An excellent programme.
Profound and educational.
Many thanks.
Beautiful
Gosh this is so interesting.. our families are southern, the music is so embedded in us. We are scott Irish and Cherokee .. thanks for this.
Greetings, JILL and BRUCE (good SCOTTISH name.) This 91 year old Texan is exactly the same, including the Cherokee! Wonderful to hear from you. Isn't this music great!! By the way, am a retired Presbyterian minister and used these same hymns countless times. 🥰🥰 🌹🌹🎀🎀❤❤❤
Wonderful - my Irish ancestry is born in my blood, even though I have never seen my "homeland." One day I will for sure. It's a promise to myself.
irish music came from scotland
@@brucecollins4729
Irish and Scottish music are the same .
Scotland and Ireland are sister countries and the native languages are sister languages .
I do understand that the Germanic ( non native) to Britain isn’t related .
Scotland got its name from Scotia, an old name for Ireland .
Anyway,, the combination and contributions from the immigrants from these two great countries have made USA a better place
@@Dannydantimpat skotia is a greek word which means dark.... hence the name scotland..land of darkness. scotia is a mythical made up tale by irish monks to give ireland an identity. i,m old enough to know "irish" music only started in the early sixties when bands like the clancies and dubliners appeared and adopted the fun scottish style ,alang with many scots sangs. fiddle music was introduced to ireland from scotland in the 1800s also 100s of scots fiddle tunes were taken back to ireland.
@@brucecollins4729 and dumb enough not to know that historical musical records disagree with you

In history, Scotia was one of King Zedekiah's daughters who Jeremiah brought to that area and is the namesake of Scotland, or Scotland is the namesake of Scotia might be more accurate. Jeremiah was called Olam Falla in Ireland/Scotland before it took its name. He had a scribe named Baruch with him and was known as a wise man.
Wayfaring Stranger is a song we sing in our little church.It is in our hymn books here in East TN.
My grandmother was of Irish descent.Her father,my great Grandfather was a Teague.
Only bigots annual like that.
@@Kitiwake what does that mean?
My family and I lived in Northern Ireland in the summer of 1995 while I was acting minister for the Dervock Reformed Presbyterian Church. We often went past the Cloughmills RP Church, and knew some people there. No one in the scene there in this video did I know. The young family interviewed would have been very wee kids twenty-two years ago!
Great documentary, and so true, from the church styles to the jigs and reels. At the same time some of the Norwegian styles like Hardanger fiddle for example played into some of the Scottish music. The English, who were obviously early immigrants to American as well shared similar music traditions.
Thanks for the video.
This history should live on forever
Brilliant video. Entertaining, educational, enlightening, evocative.
Hayde bluegrass orchestra from Norway sings wayfaring stranger better than I’ve heard anyone else sing. Find them on UA-cam.
They do an excellent job on Wsyfaring Stranger in my view.
Beautiful! Thank you for sharing and God bless everyone
Love my ancestral roots and its music.
Thanks for uploading these, pretty interesting documentary
Is there any way to purchase Karine Polwart's version of Gypsy Laddie? It's outstanding!
Beautiful music! When I visited Edinburgh, I went to see a big show of Scottish & Irish music. It sounded just like American country music. The bagpipes were so nice with their Scottish music! The last girl that sang was fantastic! One of my ancestors was from Ulster, the name Mullins
My male bloodline is German. Came to America in 1749 from Bavaria and settled in Smokey Mountains of Tennessee. My mother's ancestors are Scots Irish.
Yup, ppl often forget the large number of Germans & Austrians, particularly from the Alps regions like Bavaria, that moved right along with the Scots Irish into the Appalachia. They were very much welcome. Their excellent craft & building techniques were utilized widely. So anyone with Scots Irish heritage in the Appalachia shouldn't be surprised if they find some German or Austrian as well in their ancestory
@@Dang3rMouSe ::There were more Germans, English, and Southern Irish, Western Irish, Eastern Irish along with Irish/Irish from Northern Ireland. Because, the Roman Catholic Church, did not send Mission Priests, most of the Catholic Irish and Catholic English created their own Baptist type local churches. The ones who originated from Presbyterian-Tenant Farmers from the Plantation of Ulster Provence of Ireland were a fair big part of Appalachia but not all.

@@Dang3rMouSe, or black. Black folks lived in Appalachia too.
@@Dang3rMouSe Baden is not Bavaria. Most of the Germans came from Württemberg.
Beautiful!
"I'm going home to see my mother, no more to roam."
Tis beautiful
Having recently had my DNA done, I realize why I’ve loved this music.
I've always wondered why shape-note singers seem to yell the song. Thanks for posting this series.
My grandpa taught shape note singing schools all over the south, I grew up singing in those choirs, they never sounded like that, they always had much more of a blend, with a soprano lead, like a normal choir. Idk what other exposure you've had, but I thought that bunch sounded awful, lol. He could take a church choir that couldn't read a note of music and turn them into beautiful four part harmony in two weeks, with just an hour or so instruction a night. He was a songwriter as well, with well over a hundred published works. He taught his last school in his 90s. Quite a character!
@@2HRTS1LOVE wow! what was his name?
I think it should be mentioned that ULSTER is the northern province of Ireland. The most Gaelic province of Ireland up until 1600 and the defeat of the O'Neill's and O'Donnell's by the Tudors. Then the land was confiscated by the Tudors. And James the 1st gave the the land to Presbyterians lowland scots.
Wasn't James a Stuart?
@@jdlc903 He was Mary, Queen of Scots son who was raised by his Cousin Elizabeth I and became King of Grwat Britain upon her death.
Stolen Land, Lorded by English Nobles, and workers were Tenant-Farmers from Scotland. The Scots were mostly in Donnegal, where the worst land was, The best of Land was given to the Church of England Lords.
Wayfaring Stranger
I am a poor wayfaring stranger
Travelling through this world alone
There is no sickness, toil nor danger
In that fair land to which I go
I'm going home to see my mother
I'm going home, no more to roam
I am just going over Jordan
I am just going over home
I know dark clouds will hover o'er me
I know my pathway is rough and steep
But golden fields lie out before me
Where weary eyes no more will weep
I'm going home to see my father
I'm going home, no more to roam
I am just going over Jordan
I am just going over home
I'll soon be free from every trial
This form shall rest beneath the sod
I'll drop the cross of self denial
And enter in that home with God
I'm going home to see my savior
I'm going home, no more to roam
I am just going over Jordan
I am just going over home
I can't even read that without bawling!
Catherine S. Todd That’s the version I grew up with ! Thank you !
Proud scots-irish American!
I am too.
Yes! Me too......... Skyrish!
Scotch-Irish / Ulster Scotch
Same!
I'm an Appalachian living in Bristol TN/VA I know the gypsy song as Gypsy Davey that's what I've ever heard it as so it's interesting to see and hear it being sung by others. I'm 8% Irish but I'm a whopping 30% Scottish. Along my own ancestry findings the Ulster-Scots seem to really honestly have more Scots ancestry than they do Irish and that's just cool!!
They actually sang the Psalms ? Very cool : )
***** that's awsome , I would love to hear them. : )
***** Thank You : ) I'll look for them.
Some still do. I grew up singing Psalms at the Anglican church I went to here in the US
16.25 the performance of Gypsie Ladie... holy shit
Yes! i just watched this whole video for the first time then immediately went back to watch this 16:20 again...beautiful!
My great grandfather Orange Douglas carried the great name of the glorious revolution
7:27 amazing
16:19 that's just beautiful
I'm definitely of Scot-Irish decent...especially my Dad...from Appalachia. His first name, Gola Donald. Anyone know anything about the Gola origins of that name? Thanks
Len Graham!!!
Wayfaring Stranger - best version Emmalou Harris.
This is most excellent.
Needs some captions
Tempest's version of the lady running off with her gypsy ends with their ship sinking. These songs often have a body count!
By the way, Tempest is headed up by a Norwegian lead singer who busked his way to California. Traditional Scandinavian, Scottish, Irish, and Appalachian songs and tunes have all ended up on the west coast of the USA. :)
Does anyone know the name of the singer who was singing "Poor Wayfaring Stranger" at 4:40?
Rhiannon Giddens.
Check out the Carolina Chocolate Drops! Your mind will be blown! They put to shame today’s modern “talent”.
@@NickRatnieks from Carolina, she lives in Ireland and is married to an Irish man.
1:50 - 1:51 What kind of singing did you call it, because I've never heard the word ...all those people bellowing in the background!
Shape Singing
Please explain this song in relation to Irish heritage in north America?
Anyone know the song at 20:30?
ua-cam.com/video/wv4C4U3R1ak/v-deo.html
where is part 3 ?
8m20secs.. Londonderry?? Derry please!!
Could of left damned Dylan out.
Interesting to notice when they're showing the pictures of the old fiddlers... they're all men! But, the class he's teaching in current time, round 50:11 is almost all women. Times have changed!
What's this obsession with with Scots/Irish in America ? I would call them Anglo Scots/ Irish. Seems the vast amount of names and place names come from England. Even the national anthem of the US is a English drinking song.
1:36 - 4:20: I think that's the worst rendition of Wayfaring Stranger I've ever heard. Must be out of some kind of style or musical tradition I'm not familiar with.
