An Irish Song Played One Musical Notes At A Time

By Alex in Music, Video Clips on Mar 9, 2008 at 12:45 am

This is excellent: John Holland strings together bits of himself playing out single notes using "tin whistle in D, tabla, bongo, acoustic guitar, electric guitar, triangluitar, ukulele, another ukulele, chair with ukulele, chair with tin whistle in D, violin, casio keyboard, erhu/chinese violin, piano, and chair with cellular telephone" to play an Irish reel.

    Why is he naked with the guitar? The bottom right still, at -16 sec. duration.

    Oh, right. Irish.

    That was amazing. And that Lasse Gjertsen video is that and more! Truly “neat”; thanks, Alex.

    I wonder if he was inspired by Mike Oldfield’s “In Dulci Jubilo” from the mid seventies: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X4uLZcaRXcU&feature=related
