premo Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 Could this be an opening for concertina players who want to enjoy sun, sand and squeezing? (6th paragraph) Not sure about the saw, though - maybe that's in case someone brings an accordion! http://www.thenassauguardian.com/social_co...40915068938.php Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephen Chambers Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 Not sure about the saw, though - maybe that's in case someone brings an accordion!<{POST_SNAPBACK}> Mark, There is an excellent article here about "Ripsaw Music" (including concertina, or accordion) in the Turks & Caicos Islands, where it seems many of the Bahamian musicians come from. It even includes instructions on how to play the saw in the local style, using an old knife as a scraper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
