The second's a great reel which I've heard before but never associated it with Richard Dwyer. Most of his compositions, although beautiful, tend to have complexities built in that make them a bit difficult to pick up but this one is definitely very accessible!
I just watched it again and I love that bit where he fluffs it. watch his brilliant smile fromn the begining, it starts to slip just a little before the fluff, like he's losing concentration. Then the fluff itself amuses him and he's back grinning more than ever.

Hello all,
Does anyone know the name of the reels played in this fantastic video?

I learnt the second tune from the playing of Tommy Maguire/Liz Carroll and they called it "Richard Dwyer's".

I beg to differ. The first reel is the Whistler from Rosslea.

Btw, it surprised me at first to hear Joe miss a few notes one minute into the video, but it's nice to know he's only human.
