I recognize the face but am drawing a blank.
The flute player of course.

That must be Mairéad Ní Mhaonaigh sawing away glumly in the string section. IMO, with every iteration of the tune the addition of more musicians subtracted from the music. It was particularly annoying not being able to hear much of the flute.
And now there was no doubt that the trees were really moving - moving in and out through one another as if in a complicated country dance. ('And I suppose,' thought Lucy, 'when trees dance, it must be a very, very country dance indeed.')

Thanks for the answers.
Yes, all I could hear was the accordion and a flock of fiddlers.

Lads , lads , c'mon ! it's a fiddle tune ! ye have to let the fiddlers at it some of the time , 'ksake.

Cathal was there to mellow out the screechy bits ...

i did think it was strange to hear Cathal speaking with an American accent , until i copped it was Jay ! had a good chuckle at that .
maybe they are long lost brothers , maybe we all get to look the same at that age . maybe ..

nice to see Mark O'Connor there in the gang ,
Yo Mark ! keep it close to the ground !

Martyn Bennett to her right. She didn't look glum to me.
