Afraid I cant help with the name of the tune but I did enjoy listening to it.

I recently purchased Paul Hardy's Session Tunebook 2018 and have to say I am absolutely delighted with it. Many thanks Paul.

Very nice indeed. Thanks

Thanks for the tip and I really enjoyed the Poppy Leaf Hornpipe.

?… Thanks for posting Jody.

? Thanks for posting

Very nice indeed. Its good to hear jazz being played on the concertina.

Thanks Chris, mine came from Chris Algar as well. I visited with the intention of maybe purchasing the EE 56 key baritone treble (can be seen on his website) but as soon as I held the 64 key in my hands and played a few notes I just knew it was for me. Like yours mine has the fittings for wrist straps only.

This is what a forums all about, sharing information, it really helps those of us who don't have the knowledge and experience. Thanks.

I do Wolf. I just don't want to put it down, it just encourages me to play. …. My wife has a different opinion though.

I haven't either the time nor the dosh to afford him LOL.

I wonder if it has been purchased to play or to be part of a collection?

Thanks, I'll study it tomorrow to see if I can find anything suitable..

I Thanks, It's 29447 (Dec 1922)

It may just come to that Geoff but it would be the last resort for me as I'm not that good at that sort of thing. I have already asked Chris.

Duly posted Wolf....?

Hopefully there is a photo of my Baritone Treble attached below.

My Baritone Treble Aeola came in a modern case but the case is on the big side and there are things I don't like about it, so I am trying to find something more suitable. Can anyone point me in the right direction? I should add I live in the UK.

Thanks to all for your helpful replies. Since posting, I have acquired another EC and find with this one I can play quieter, seems to have better control of the reeds they can be played loud, soft or in between and maybe I am finding bellow control easier.

Well I have just collected my Baritone Treble today. In the end I chose the 64 key model over a 56 key, it just felt better in my hands. Have just finished my first couple of hours playing and am very pleased. I have still a long way to go but I feel the journey with this concertina will be a happy one.

Dowright, PM sent.

When playing the violin in the house a heavy practice mute can be used to reduce the sound right down. With the saxophone a cloth is stuffed into the bell end..... What can be done with the Concertina apart from bellow control?

Would a pianist find any particular concertina system easier to play. I don't know enough about Duets but I think probably one of the Duet systems would be favourite but then maybe the EC? Any pianists out there who can give their opinion? I should add I am not a pianist myself although I am attempting to learn the piano and I do play the EC albeit not as well as I would like.
