All-Ireland senior button accordion champion (2005 and 2007) Damien Mullane plays the four-part jig, “The King of the Pipers”, which he played in the 2005 All-Ireland Fleadh.
This young man is … This young man is very talented! I love this kind of sound. Nice instrument! Is the accordion made in Ireland?? Thank you for this video.
ha he`s class but … ha he`s class but he`s hair is so much nicer now hehe! It was gas the way wen he was introducin it he slipped in dat he also won the melodeon:L x
He’s playing a … He’s playing a diatonic two row button accordion (or melodeon). Irish versions typically have the two rows tuned to B/C, C#/D or D/D#, which makes them chromatic or nearly chromatic (which is to say all the notes of the scale are available). A concertina is ocatagonal or hexagonal and is basically a melodeon keyboard split halfway down with the upper half found under the left hand and the lower half found under the right hand. No bass buttons on a concertina.
He’s a good player, isn’t he?
some people say its … some people say its not the size that matters – its what you do with it
That aside the small ones have less weight so its easier to travel about with them. They are also likely to have less couplers therefore types of sound are restricted.
The larger models need more power in the left arm and tend to have a variety of inter changeable sounds.
lo ho ascoltato … lo ho ascoltato questa estate 2008 in irlanda, è olutamente uno dei più bravi musicisti che ho mai ascoltato, non è solo un virtuoso eccezionale ma un vero genio musicale, ne risentiremo parlare. questo video non gli fa onore è di tanti anni fa

To the person who wants the sheet music to this tune
Log on to web and look up The Session – it lists the sheet music for several thousand irish tunes – including sound files so you can hear the tune.
The tune is listed as Franc A´Phoill
