Jig & Reel on a Suttner!


Ptarmigan

Recommended Posts

From so many years of playing in very cramped conditions, in the corner of tiny Pubs, Irish Concertina & Box players have been forced to develop this technique of using very little air in their bellows! ;)

 

You will also notice that Fiddlers tend to point their Fiddles towards the floor. This is to save space as well, but also means that they are able to stab the Flute player on their left, with their Bow, because he or she is probably dripping saliva all over their left trouser leg. :P

 

Cheers,

Dick
