Brendan Begley's Paolo tuning on set dancing video?
Hello all:
I have an old VHS video called A FEAST OF IRISH SET DANCING. 3 sets are demonstrated: The North Kerry, Sliabh Luachra and West Kerry. The musician's include Johnny O'Leary and Brendan Begley. Brendan Begley plays a grey Paolo Soprani during his set, and as I try to play along (with a C#/D box), my fingerings and bellows changes are not in sync with Brenden's. I think he may be playing a D/D# box? Anyone familiar with this video who can answer? His playing style and the West Kerry sets style (more fluid and less bouncing than the other styles) are fantastic. I am familiar with a few of the tunes he plays, but others I do not know the names. I would like to find out the tunes he is playing. Anyone know the tunes (names) he is playing?
