These inlays are not MOP, but metal. Lachenal had these in what were their best Englishes before the introduction of the "New Model": The Inimitable (rosewood), the Excelsior (ebony) and the Nonpareille (amboyna, with gilt buttons). They also had the golden tooling in the bellows and the fancy papers. Christian's is a Inimitable. Here are pictures of a Nonpareille (#35480, c.1896) and a Excelsior (#42054, c.1906) with more elaborate fretwork. BTW: I've seen the same inlays on Wheatstones as well.

So, one spammer who was quickly removed has made it difficult for ordinary members to communicate? Isn't that a little overkill? Can a moderator reply to this? Did lots of members ask for this restriction? I only saw one enquiry as to whether it could be set up? Lots of ordinary members here are grateful for all the efforts of our moderators to make this forum possible, and think they're doing a great job. Please ask politely.

Like it or not, but lot of expression. And it doesn't seem to need that much power.....

Two details about you abc: In the bar before the last, the "d" shouldn't be flat, I suppose? |"E7"(3EFE ^D>E e>=dc>B| And Q:100 makes it very slow in the Tune-O-Tron converter. Thanks for sharing a great tune!

I always look for a post by Henk van Aalten, the "father" of The Recorded Tunes Link Page . The link is in his signature at the bottom of that post....

Any Dutch speakers care to describe what's going on in this video? He wanted a "longer" bellows for clownesque visual effect. The bellows of his first concertina had one frame in the middle. When he saw on the internet almost the same concertina with two frames he bought it expecting it to be 50% longer. But it appeared to be even shorter than his first concertina. Frustration and indignation.... His last words: It's a shame!

I think it's more than a bonus: The more you can recognize the love, the craftmanship, the dedication, the art of the maker in your instrument, the more it helps you to bring those qualities into your music. And I think the looks play an important role in that process.

could it be neil wayne. No, it doesn't look remotely like him. Anyway, he plays Anglo. I don't! You don't wonder. Because it isn't or it is?

I think the piano keyboard feels logical because we read from left to right and imagine scales in the first place from low to high.

I too love the pictures your Tenor Treble EC. I am still looking for a tenor as I now have a treble. Let me know if its still available. To prevent further confusion: Mr L.'s Æola on flickr is a Treble. Ptarmigan's compliments were for Tallship's Tenor-Treble. [Edited for typo.]

Wheatstone Æola English (1926): 7 mm - 4 mm.

Leo already spotted this video last week. (http://www.concertina.net/forums/index.php...ost&p=89500) This was the only answer to your question:

I only listened half the tune, but I didn't hear more than 1.17 concertinas....

I suppose it did register, but it didn't show. You were still watching the screen as it was before you downloaded the MP3. Go to another page and then come back (or refresh the current page) to see the most recent number of downloads. Alan, to give you an impression: Yesterday, when I viewed this topic, I downloaded the MP3 as well. I listened to your tune (and enjoyed it!) while viewing other topics. Today, viewing the topic again to see new reactions, I downloaded the music another time, in order to understand your explanation about the dancing. And then I downloaded once again, to check the download counter. So 3 of the 37 downloads are mine. And the amount of topic views at this moment: 132, of which 4 are mine....

I suppose he's playing an upwards extended piccolo?

I think my Æola Baritone Trumps your Duet wolsop. It weighs in at 2041g! ...................... Any Bass players out there? Sorry Dick, Wolosp's Duet is 2.25kgs = 2250g

A mallet finger. I had the same about a year ago: Had some glue left on my middle finger, rubbed it in the palm of my left hand, and *snip*. Incredible, you can damage your own body that way in a split second! I had it in a splint for no more than five weeks, to make sure, the joint wouldn't grow stiff. The finger never became really straight again, but I'm used to that now. And I'm glad it totally regained its flexibility. The day it happened: And a year after: In those five weeks, I couldn't keep my hands of my concertina (english), so I used my ring finger instead of my middle finger for the third row as well. That helped me afterwards in alternative fingering. FJB, I hope you'll recover as well as I did!

Hi Trish, you're right about the harvesting. I would send a message to Ken Coles, our admin. Welcome aboard. Leonard
