    First, I was at a funeral recently where the flute/whistle player played a very famous tune which, I think, was an culann. First, how do you spell that tune correctly and what version of it is best? Second, what other tunes would be appropriate for a funeral. I was listening to RnaG this afternoon and they played a pipe (whistle?) version of Róisín Dubh which again seemed appropriate for a funeral. Any suggestions, especially with YouTube links, would be great.

    Second, I'm getting married later this year and we now have to sort out the music so all suggestions in this regard for traditional music and songs would be brilliant.

    Thanks a million.

    Hi,

    Myself and two other professional traditional musicians have a 3 piece set up where we provide traditional music for weddings.

    Feel free to contact me if you might be interested.

    Thanks,
