Circa Paleo - The Kiss (The Gael) @ Renaissance Pleasure Faire, Irwindale

This was my first Ren Faire, and what a pleasant surprise that Circa Paleo was there! I had just found out about this music group about a week before the Faire, while looking for videos of live performances of "The Gael", and Circa Paleo's videos showed up.
The group members are all very talented and friendly; not only did I get a beautiful treat for my ears, they all kindly met me after the performance and autographed my album! :) It was a pleasure to meet them all!
I wish the recording was done better. I unfortunately don't have a proper camera, so this was recorded on my Samsung Galaxy II. Oh well, I suppose it could have been worse!
This song is called "The Kiss"; originally titled "The Gael" and composed by Dougie MacLean, this tune was immortalized when it was adopted for use in the classic film "The Last of the Mohicans", and remains one of my all-time favorites!
Hope you enjoy it as much as I did! Remember to check out Circa Paleo's website and give them your adoration and support!

    I supposed I have listened to Jenny O'Conner play "The Gael" dozens of times on her violin (accompanied with her talented fellow musicians) and every time, without fail, it raises goose bumps on my skin. I have also heard other musicians play the song, but her rendition is special. The only other comparable rendition, to my ear, is that by the Royal Scots Dragoon Guards, but perhaps that is because of my Scottish ancestry! But, my dog doesn't appreciate the bagpipes!

    I took part in the original, California Renaissance Pleasure Faire for 20 years beginning in 1978, and I don't know why they bother calling it a "Renaissance Faire" anymore. It should be called a Fantasy Faire. But I'm grateful that at least the proper credit is given to Dougie MacLean on his video.

    That’s a Violin not a Fiddle. But yes she is incredible, I’ve heard other versions before and they don’t even come close to how flawless and seamless she plays. Truly it is a gift. You can’t really teach a person to play this way , every cord is part of her soul and literally puts you in a trance like state.
