His recording of the Kesh jig featured a lot of moovment away from the 'lines and dots', is this improvised on the spot, or practiced in? and either way, what, if any are the tehcnical considerations for such improvisations.
Hello there chris.

Well, unfortunately the interview is already made, I can't ask him more questions than what I did.

Check out the blog later today and you'll see the 3rd and last part of the interview. Feel free to leave a comment!

Perhaps. But Ryan Duns thinks you wear funny trousers.

Well done Whistler Bard.
This was a great idea and a very well done interview...
I didn't contribute any questions because when I first saw the thread there were none left in my mind that wasn't already covered. BUT all that aside, I'm really glad that I got to read this interview. I have learned much and have a great respect for Ryan Dunns.

Thanks again!

I'm concerned that he thinks that bad tunes happen to good whistles because of sin. That means I'll never be any good.
Finally feel like I'm getting somewhere. It's only taken 6 years.
