0:00
some variations on the first few notes
0:27
So you can see with Irish music, it's
0:29
not about playing exactly the same thing
0:31
every time. You kind of make the music
0:32
your own. And as long as you maintain
0:35
the kind of integrity of the tune
0:36
itself, there's quite a lot of scope for
0:38
variation. And also sometimes it's
0:41
pragmatic because you need to take a
0:42
breath. So you play um you know one note
0:44
and then a gap in in a triplet of
0:46
quavers. You play the first note,
0:47
breathe on the second and then uh play
0:54
obviously exaggerating that but
0:57
that's a place that you can breathe even
0:58
though the melody might expect you to go
1:01
and fill in all of those triplets for
1:03
example or you might just want to do the
1:09
So there's a lot of scope for that and I
1:10
think that's a really interesting place
