Delson PQ! I was a kid in the 1970s and when I was visiting my uncle in Delson, we were always passing in front of his house. He was our “violoneux qui faisait des disques!” He was a great Man. A rural symbol of our way of life!
Thx for the post. I'm of French Canadian descent and my father called it Reel du Pendu. The story behind it was the hangman took the sentenced man's violin , detuned it , handed back and told him if he could play a tune he would spare his life. Ti- Jean Carignan destroys it.
They knew. His status as one of the world's foremost folk fiddlers had already been established long before this video was made. This looks like a family gathering, btw.
Yes, thanks from me as well. (And to you too, Henry for forwarding the link.) I have waited twenty-five years to see any video of Carignan and this one in particular is the best version of Hangman's Reel I've heard anyone ever play. It is astonishing! I have had the recording on cassette.
Un film magnifique (Jean Carignan, violoneux en 1975) de Bernard Gosselin un cinéaste de l'Onf dont l'oeuvre est dédiée toute entière à la grandeur du peuple du Québec.
@kabur From the low G you tune it up to an A, so the tuning is A, D, A, C sharp. The devils tuning! Also used in tunes like "Black mountain rag" Gives a good funny effect when using double string playing. Laydies and gentlemen! It´s easy to find me cause i leave a track of broken strings and crashed bows behind me! Make a search at my name! All the very best! Anders Schilling
M. Dumas le cordonnier dont il parle dans le film était mon grand-père. M. Carignan m'a beaucoup appris sur la musique classique (surtout la musique pour violon) et m'a souvent parlé de mon grand-père et nous avons beaucoup échangé de disques entre nous. Ce fut un grand honneur pour moi de pouvoir le côtoyer. Achille Beaulne.
Dear friends, it´s just imopssible to compare Jean Carignan with Sean McGuire as they came from compllely different scools. All the very best! Andy from Sweden!
..You said you didnt like the canadian style fiddling, well, Cape Breton(a part of canada)has some great fiddlers, they play mostly scottish music.. Some fo them are very good..
Film produit par l'Office National du Film en 1975. La scène qu'on voit dans cette vidéo a été enregistrée en 1974. Il s'agit d'une fête familiale dans une maison québécoise.
I am unaware of any CB fiddler in a contest with the exception of the Aboriginal Player Lee Cremo. Ashley, Nathalie, Dwayne , Troy etc do not play contests.

He played at my parents' wedding, Of course, I could not attend... :-)
Wonder how many of those witnessing this wonderful session realised at the time that they were in the presence of genius.

This is THE BEST version of this tune I have EVER heard. You live on Jean!
Jean Carignan was a gifted individual. To bad he wasn't with us a few more years. I would have liked to have seen him perform in person.
Shame on me for not learning ....my grand pa on my dad side gave me is second violon before passing away...miss him ...bless you guys
thanks for posting this .. today is World Fiddling Day and Mr. Carignan ... thank you for everything you gave us ... merci

Si je me trompe pas, ça provient du DVD "Jean Carignan, violoneux" filmé en 1975 par l'Office National du Film du Canada.

Chris ... thank you so much. I have waited over 30 yrs to watch a video of Jean playing. Awesome! Henry

Wow LE maître! Ça coule en sacréfice avec lui!
Très belle et très belle pièce

Bravo M. Carignan !!!!

Cette musique me rappelle la musique des Appalaches de la Caroline du Nord, d'ou je viens :)
Jobey les 2/3 des descendants Canadien-Français sont aux États-Unies.😉
Correction: It should be A, E, A C-sharp
Qui est la jeune femme que l'on voi a la fin?
Hey
I just posted everything I have of Carignan :D
Oh My Word
Non mais quelle machine! Dans le temps où les Québécois n'étaient pas morts la langue sorti devant leur téléphone...
If I'm not mistaken, the title translates as "reel of the hanged".
You are right. Reel du ''pendu''.
Papa m'a fait connaître.
L'année 2008 sera le 20e anniversaire de son décès.
en quel année et en quelle occasion se vidéo a ete filmer? c'est toujours un plaisir de voir jouer M.Carignan

@@jean-guyjacques3338 Merci beaucoup.
Great post. Anyone know the tuning?
What magic is this?

What do you mean, "may be"?
OK ... that was great. Now go watch "Sean McGuire in Full Flight" at
watch?v=ZUOT_PLgMSc . Tear it up Sean!
wow. that sounds like a more ragtime type version of hangmans reel than old time. Thats really cool though!
Weee-haw! Crops are in boys, so let's have us a right shindig!!!
Not a patch on Aly Bain's version-half the length and twice as good!

Vivienne Randall, You don't know what you are talking about.
tabastic ces't bon
Sounds like Shawn Schwartz
