"No Longer Mourn for Me" & "Culloden", Ensemble
Galilei-7.12
No Longer Mourn for Me" &
"Culloden", performed by Ensemble Galilei (www.egmusic.com), at the
Institute of Musical Traditions (www.imtfolk.org), Takoma Park, Maryland, USA
on December 21, 2012.
For many years, Ensemble Galilei has presented their annual Solstice concert to full houses in the Great Hall at Saint John's College in Annapolis. IMT is delighted to be able to bring the show to Takoma Park for the first time. The group includes DC's own Sue Richards on harp and IMT favorite Hanneke Cassel on fiddle, along with Kathryn Montoya on recorders, whistle, oboe, Jackie Moran on percussion, Ryan McKasson on fiddle and viola, and Carolyn Anderson Surrick on viola de gamba.
Ensemble Galilei is made up of some of the best Scottish, Irish, and Early music specialists in the US. But that's not all. What sets them apart is the extraordinary communication between the musicians. A kind of communication that only happens when the people on stage have been playing together for decades. This group has played across the country and back again, and they have earned their reputation as one of the finest crossover groups in the nation. And imagine, a Winter Solstice Concert on the Solstice! Music to heat the darkest night.
"Aside from the ensemble's good musicianship and wonderful way with the myth-evoking, gentle melancholy of Celtic music, the most striking feature was the obvious pleasure the players took in what they were doing." - Ottawa Citizen
Sound: Dave Eisner, Dave Richardson, Jim Batchelder
Camera: Kathie Lillie, Laura Christoplos, Dick Tufts, Ralph Lillie

Pipes Solo - Lark in the Morning", Cillian Vallely & Alan
Murray-6.53 min

"Pipes Solo - Lark in the Morning",
performed by Cillian Vallely & Alan Murray (www.vallelymusic.com) in
concert at the Institute of Musical Traditions (www.imtfolk.org), Rockville,
Maryland, USA on October 1, 2012.
Cillian is accompanied by Alan Murray on guitar.
Niall and Cillian Vallely learned their music the old-fashioned way - from their parents Brian and Eithne, who founded the Armagh Pipers' Club, a group that for over three decades has fostered the revival of traditional music in Ireland's north.
His father Brian plays the Uilleann pipes and mother Eithne the fiddle, but Niall instead took up the concertina, an instrument not usually associated with music from Ulster. His fearless exploration of the concertina's undiscovered capabilities has helped redefine its role in irish music. Based since 1988 in Cork City, Niall was a founding member of the well-known group Nomos. He also played a prominent part in Mícheál Ó Súilleabháin's River of Sound television project and has performed in recent years with piping great Paddy Keenan, bluegrass mandolinist Tim O'Brien, and singer Karan Casey, his partner in life as well as music. Niall's solo recording Beyond Words was released in 1998 to much critical acclaim.
Cillian took up his father's instrument and polished his skills with tutelage from the late Armagh piper Mark Donnelly. His mastery of chanter, drones and regulators, and of all the accents and moods of the traditional piping idiom, place him in the first rank of today's Irish pipers. Cillian now tours with the group Lúnasa, and has also performed extensively in America with groups such as New York's Whirligig and Paddy O'Brien's Chulrua, and has appeared with fiddler Seamus Connolly, Riverdance on Broadway and Tim O'Brien's The Crossing.

Liam O Flynn --- King Of The Pipers- gaita- 7-29 min

I can not explain the emotions and feelings I get
listening to this type of music. If there isn't pipe music like this in Heaven,
count me out.
The interviewer is Paddy Glackin, another great fiddle player in his own right.
Leo Rowsome was born in April 1903 in Dublin City into a family with a strong piping tradition. Leo's grandfather, Samuel of Ballintore, Co. Wexford, was a contemporary of Johnny Cash another famous piper, and Leo's father William and Uncles Tom and John were all proficient at the uilleann pipes. The Rowsome house in Harold's Cross was full of music and noise!
Leo's father died in 1928 and Leo himself then took up his father's practice of making pipes. Due to the prevailing economic condition, Leo left school early to commence work at 14 years of age. At the age of 17 in 1920 he commenced teaching in the College of Music and remained there as a part time teacher till his death. Just how many pupils he put through his hands in the 50 years is beyond comprehension. Each pupil had a practice set and manuscript for the music settings. Waltons published a Rowsome Tutor in 1936. Leo married Helena Williams from Taghmon, thus strengthening the strong Wexford link in the family. Leo played in a trio on Radio Éireann in 1920 ( 2RN as it was then known) with Seamus Ó Mathúna, fiddle and Nelius Cronin flute. As a result, he was in much demand all over the country at concert and feiseanna.
He founded Cumann na bPíobarí Uilleann in 1936, which had its headquarters at Árus Ceannt, Thomas Street for many years. Musicians came from all over for Saturday nights sessions and lessons. In association with feis Lár na hÉireann, the Piobairí held the first Fleadh Cheoil in Mullingar in 1951, out of which grew CCÉ. Leo also played on Radio Éireann in the 30's in a piping quartet which included Eddie Potts, Tom Rowsome and Michael Padian. Later many others took part, such as Tommy Reck, Willie Clancy, Willie Reynolds, Jim Seery etc. Leo had a workshop attached to his home where he made and repaired pipes. He had clients all over the world and was more interested in seeing pipes being played than in charging too highly for the service. Leo died while adjudicating 'Fiddler of Dooney' competition in Sligo September 1970.
His Music: - Leo's skill in the use of the regulators is evident in the recordings. He provided a continuous rhythmic accompaniment to the melody just like a pianist. His interpretation of the slow air was a moving experience for his listeners while his 'Fox Chase' was considered a masterpiece.
