    150 years after the Great Famine, we can see that Ireland has more than recovered! What a celebration of persistence, endurance, and love of life!
    And now, 24 years on, with the Chieftains’ most recent loss of Paddy Moloney, we celebrate his life of trad music mastery and leadership, as well as all the lives of the Chieftains and the Corrs!!! Thank you all, and Paddy, RIP.

    I have a little Irish in me. My great, great, great, great, great Grandfather was Daniel O'Connell. I come from his daughter Elizabeth who married Thomas Kehoe. My Grandmother was a McDonald, and my other great Grandmother was a Brennan. However my Grandfathers were German and Italian. They married Irish girls. WELL I JUST WANT TO SAY, I LOVE THIS.

      Her whistle playing is better than her sister’s “fiddle” playing which is so plain and “classical.” But to each their own. That’s my opinion. It was the Corrs who first inspired me to learn the whistle and fiddle. Unfortunately Andrea Corr likes playing those $3 Walton’s whistle things. I bought some in 2001 and they were downright unplayable. In this video she’s playing what appears to be a Generation nickel whistle. They’re slightly better than Walton’s but hit or miss. I can only imagine the Corrs’ music if she had a finer instrument! There is definitely something to be said for cheaper instruments; my favorite whistle right now is an Oak D. But that was a lucky buy! I’d sooner purchase an Oak over a Generation; I’d sooner purchase a Generation over a Feadog. And I’d buy a feadog and never a Walton’s. Nope

      I grew up in an Ireland and in primary school, it was compulsory to learn how to play the Tin Whistle. It's a very squeaky whistle, no matter how much you practice. It's hard to master, and even those who have aren't ever 'perfect', but that's the joys of irish music. It's not meant to be pure perfection, it's meant to be fun, cheerful and upbeat 😊

      John Benton We Irish Americans on this side of the Atlantic have A cure for all this. Make the irish republic the 51st American state, then ulster will become even more of A millstone around englands neck. Its costing them A bundle, Smart people would have gotten out long ago

      I was chatting to a nice lady in a garage near Westport. She said she could not understand the nationalists in Ulster; If they were to come over the border to Eire, they would be given a farm each! As they say in Yorkshire, "There's nowt as queer as folk". And, do you know, I think they're right.

    The Chieftans are fantastic, the music is fantastic, and the Corrs - they are so beautiful. I play Bodhran, but could hardly watch it becasue of that beautiful young lady. Wish she would hold me so close! ten out of five
