These Cape Breton fiddlers are incredible. Scottish blood running through their veins plus the memory of Scotland will never die. Thanks to Scotland for the gift of the Scots to the new world.
Godspeed, Buddy. You may be gone, but your music will live forever. The angels will be dancing a reel tonight, while Cape Bretoners mourn.
Truly a great Scottish fiddle player.
Seeing and hearing this gentle man in concert in Louisbourg nearly 8 years ago instantly made Buddy just about my favourite fiddler ever. He'll not be forgotten in a hurry.
Awesome music:-) Brings me back home to Cape Breton!
My grandpa passed away recently and he was from Nova Scotia, a second cousin to Buddy and a fellow fiddle player! We used the music from this video as background music to his memorial video. Thanks again for posting
Still so beautiful, thanks for this recording! ❤
A true downhome gentleman and one of the greatest luninaries in Cape Breton's legacy to celtic music
R.I.P. you will be missed Buddy!
His spirit will live on with us forever. Thank you Buddy
Getting a bit teary eyed, searching for songs that remind me of home and this is it
Wow! Breathtakingly good.
Truly a master at his craft.
always been a BIG FAN
So beautiful!
'Hats off' to the man from Judique.
Rest in Peace Buddy.
I love it!!
4 time zones away but now I'm back on Route 19!
absolutely the best version of Gow's lament I've ever come across.
Of course, Jerry played this waltz ...I will always think of his playing on hearing this tune....RIP
R.I.P.
love it
So, I've listened to a bunch of versions of Neil Gow's Lament, and have to say that Buddy set standard. This performance is why I started learning fiddle, and I hope that one day I can play this even half as well.
Edit: 4 years later, still my favorite version.

Paul Anderson on UA-cam for Neil Gow's Lament!
the first tune he plays is 'Neil Gow's lament for the death of his second wife' - yeah.. haha. or a remake with Natalie Macmaster and Alison Krauss - Get me through December. I can't name the others off hand, though it's fantastic.
Can someone identify the second and third tunes of the set please? After the Gow lament. Thanks!
the first is neil gow's lament for for his 2nd wife. i'll get my dad to reply to you with the rest
What is the second piece called that he plays here?
laddie with a laddie
@@laurathomas580 LOL! With a plaidie, maybe?
Neil Gow's Lament to the death of his 2nd wife
Great clip. Would have been better without that stupid piano in the background! (I still give it 5 stars.)
Listen to Yehudi Menuhin play this piece. Buddy's bowing is too short.
He doesn't play it right. His bows are too short. The piece is a tragedy. Long bows. Listen to Yehudi Menuhin play it.
John Deagle that's why they call it an interpretation.......
Buddy's mother and my paternal grandmother were sisters. Buddy and my dad are first cousins, and I have had the very special privilege of listening to his fiddle perfection and beauty for many years.
When my mom worked with Smithsonian Folkways before I was born, she hosted Buddy, his daughter Mary Elizabeth on piano, and Dave MacIsaac on guitar for the "Masters of the Folk Violin" show as part of their Folk Masters concert series in 1994. I grew up listening to the tapes of those shows, and I got hooked especially on Buddy and Cape Breton fiddling. Buddy was really one of the best.
when you are on the other side of the world for 35 years and you hear this...tears flow
Feeling close to home and family, hearing Buddy play this tune, lets me be there. Ceart ma tha. Tilleadh mi dhachaidh, le m' Athair 's mo Mhàthair.y
I was at Sabhal Mor Ostaig in Skye when news of Buddy's death came in. In previous summers we'd been staying down the road from his home in Judique, we were in Long Point on Highway19...a long way from Clare, Galway & Roscommon! Anyway,it was very touching that our fiddle teacher, the wonderful Charlie McKerron from Capercaillie, dedicated our concert performance to Buddy's memory. The Iron Man, the Eagle's Whistle and the (mighty) Goat Island Ceili Band reel were part of our set. Brilliant teacher and lovely man, that Charlie! We played with pride for Buddy MacMaster RIP.
Buddy was a wonderful man, a great representative for Cape Breton music. Loved seeing him at the Canadian American Club with my dad MW.
Buddy McMasters' concert displaying his mastery of Scottish fiddling is superb! If Neil Gow could hear his rendition of of the Lament to his second wife, no doubt he would be pleased. Five stars for this wonderful post!
Paul Anderson of Scotland on UA-cam plays Neil Gow's Lament for the Death of His Second Wife just a wee bit better than Buddy plays it. Listen to Paul's rendition on the London Fiddle Conference. Impressive!!!
The world has lost one of the greatest fiddlers in the world. RIP Buddy.
RIP, Buddy MacMaster, we have lost one of the greatest fiddlers in the world.
As long as this video remains on UA-cam I will always come back to listen as I've done for many years. Buddy so reminds me of my grandda and my grandda also played the fiddle the same way Buddy does. My grandda was a wonderful man and I loved him dearly.
Thank you Sam Rust for posting this video and thank you UA-cam for keeping it on for all this time. Keep it on for always and Buddy will live on forever.
RIP. Thanking you for sharing your musical gifts with us and leaving us a great legacy. You will be missed.
Really pure rendition of Neil Gow's Lament - without the superfluous trills that many players inject- just the few triplets and grace notes. Anybody know the names of the other tunes in the set?
My mom and dad used to go see Buddy when he came to the Canadian American Club in Watertown, MA years ago, so a large part of me was introduced to him long time before I ever heard him!
I think in high school, I wouldn't have appreciated him! It's just nice now to apppreciate him!
Saw Natalie about a year ago--she's taking after Uncle Buddy!
RIP Hugh Allen MacMaster!!!
Rest in peace, Buddy. Thank you for sharing such a special gift of your tradition with the rest of the world...
May God bless you Buddy MacMaster, this is so beautiful.
This video has been my Bible for the last 14 years.
Thank you so much,Sam!
RIP Buddy, you will be missed, but you and your music will live on in our hearts.
Victor Lewis Especially this absolute GEM of a performance!!!!!!!!! You're not with us anymore Sir, but you left this Massachusets crowd in complete awe as this performance still leaves me in AWE and tugs away at my heart strings. The Scots have most definitely our lives with their achievements. Thank goodness some of those forced to flee Inverness during the Highland Clearances, brought their fiddle talents with them and settle in the Maritimes.
I listened to Buddy as a child and my father was a big fan. Beautiful music. Amazing 👏

Rest in peace, Buddy. Thank you for sharing such a special gift of your tradition with the rest of the world...
This is how earthly Angels help us achieve our gratitude for life and listening to their tune.
This was in Boston at B.C. Collage.
