www.setdancingnews.net Noel Hill from Lissycasey,County Clare.

She called it "The Reel With The Beryl." Noel Hill is one of those standard-setting voices in Irish music today. Few musicians in any field or in any generation achieve a position where both audiences and experts agree on their preeminence and mastery of an instrument; Noel Hill's virtuosity has firmly established him as the defining Irish concertina player of our time. Noel Hill comes from County Clare on the west coast of Ireland, where the concertina tradition is so strong the instruments was nicknamed "the Clareman's Trumpet" and legend has it there was once a concertina in every other household. It was into one of these households that Noel Hill was born, and as a young child Noel was forbidden to touch his older brother's concertina. But he couldn't keep his hands off the instrument and was always stealing away with it. One day when his brother was laboring through a hornpipe Noel gave himself away by taking the concertina and playing the tune with ease. That got everyone's attention, and he's had it ever since. Noel Hill has taken the humble concertina from the house dances of County Clare on the west coast of Ireland to stages throughout the world.

I heard this tune by Jan-Anders here on YouTube, and decided to learn it myself. My version doesn't have the solid feel and fluidity of his, but it's fun to play! I recorded it at the home of Charlie and Charmaine in Seattle, members of the Tallboys and Squirrel Butter. Charlie came up with a great fretless banjo part on the spot, and Charmaine was chicken wrangler. www.thetallboys.com www.squirrelbutter.com Hear them all around Seattle, and especially at the Tractor Tavern Square Dance! tractortavern.com

This is an old cakewalk tune called "Whistling Rufus" by Kerry Mills. I arranged an anglo concertina version from the original 1899 sheet music. This is a somewhat shortened version, usually I'd repeat each part twice. But it was difficult enough playing it this long without making too many mistakes. I played it on a Wakker anglo concertina with rosewood ends. The audio was recorded with an iRiver iFP-899 MP3 player, using a plug-in gooseneck stereo microphone lying next to my feet. I mixed in a bit of audio from the camera for room ambience.
