Every now and again some young f***er comes along and redefines an instrument. Brilliant.

even the air button sounds great

The man needs to come and play some folk festivals in Newfoundland. A couple of hundred thousand people would love him instantly.

That’s just about the greatest piece of musical talent I’ve ever heard.

If you could only hear this, youd think there were 3 people playing. Amazing

I do not have the vocabulary to express how much I enjoy this.

Truly one of a kind musick. Not heard anything like this my whole life and glad you are here.

Wow , I’ve been learning the concertina for years , it’s a tricky little instrument , this is honestly mind blowing . Never seen anything like it !

I asked my wife how many other musicians were playing in the background. You can imagine my awe in her response. This is amazing 👏 🙌 Its even better when listened too on headphones...if that's possible !!

Irish music at it's very best.nothing to compare with this.fabulous stuff.

As Martin Banks says here, Cormac redefines the bass concertina. To hear him play this live a few years ago where he helped host our Canadian choir, Harmony Mountain Singers from North Vancouver was mind blowing and an incredible privilege.

G'wan Begley...I never tire of this. Amazing

Makes ya want to get up and fight someone, even if you have to invent an enemy

Yup the O'Neill's

A master musician at work...ASTOUNDING

Very inspiring, never seen concertina played like before

Brilliant on so many levels

He's absolutely amazing!!!! I"m obsessed!!

I want this tune on every one of those concertinas, let's hear the colors of the rainbow.

Total Class ! I love the digerridoo bottom notes :)

Ya...this is great music. I love the traditional aspect with some new twists such as some very low notes and strange sounds almost like it's electronic music...and of course a pounding rythem...Awesome!

I asked my friend how much Irish he had in him and he answered by playing this song for me.

Really class. Original, deep ,inventive ...........more than a tune, more like a powerful evocative story being told with such urgency and passion that you hang on every note . Spellbinding.

This is some sound, pure class.

monster performance here. immense skill - in awe of this level of control and innovation

I account for at least 100 of the views on this amazing video..breathtaking playing..there is almost a violence the way you play that brings the instrument and the tunes to a whole different level. This is genius. Thank you Cormac

His skill is impressive! 🤯 Sounds so good and special 😃

Talented and mastered the art of traditional folk music and instrument.

Awesome! As fine a rendition of this old tune as I've ever heard.

Amazing! Anyone that's ever picked up a concertina and tried to squeeze out a song knows how hard it is to keep track of what tone coincides with the in & out of the bellows. I'd love to hear how many hours of practice went into this song.

How does he do that? This just took my head off! *It's brilliant!*

Amazing Play ever and tune by Cormac love those low sounds ever thank you Cormac amazing

That man is pure class great respect 🙏 ❤

Cormac, truly mesmerizing..... LONG MAY YOU LIVE ! and make them concertinas sing. (A fan as Tralí, Contae Chiarraí)

Playing the concertina like he stole it! ❤️

Brilliant version with your own individual stamp on it👍🏻 Thank john Creedon for introducing people to it!

Loved this in NZ when you played MAM!!

what a player wow

all I can say is WOW!!!!!!!

Nothing on this scale in the entire cosmos. Kidding! Nice, Compare and Contrast with the Chieftains. Great different interpretations but I must say Begley does this with his lonely concertina as if it's a whole orchestra.

Wow!

Excellent,

Fantastic!

Superb, touched my soul 😄

Excellent!!. keep upi the good work especially on that Base Consotinia - excellent work, Most cant get but a fart from it.
