Every once in a while.....someone comes along to totally 'redefine' an instrument. And Cormac Begley is just that. *BRAVO!*

@johnmc3862 4 ай бұрын

Nonsense, do you read the Irish times? I can tell you for a fact most Irish musicians don’t think he has redefined anything.

I love it when pepole like you say: *"I can tell you for a fact that most Irish muscians don't think that he has redifined anything."* Right so....back up your 'claim' then. Go on and 'name the names' of all those Irish musicians that *you know for a fact* don't think he has redifined anything. Let's hear back from you.... Who are you kidding?

I remember Cormac as a teen playing around West Kerry when I lived with Seamus for a few years I will never forget this magical time around the Begley family, hes taken what he's learned from his father Breanndan growing up and developed his own unique and powerful style, I have never heard a concertina sound like this ever. It's wild, powerful and just raw phenomenally good.

Life ! To war. . . The start. Slow and mellow....infancy..rhythm grows. Moves to adolecence and teenage rhythm comes alive with life . Passion . Dreams. Love. Then the tragedy, the fall, now to war...the rhythm breaks , the struggle , stay afloat. Triumph the rhythm comes back .... reformed and realigned. Rise now the soul is formidable.
