Great news Gary - I have the cd-rom but no drive to read it any longer!

I've always liked being part of the ICA. The website has some great resources and the back issues of the magazine are great to look through.

I'm looking at purchasing a C/G concertina with traditional reeds. Ideally it would be a vintage metal ended instrument but will consider modern makers' instruments also. Does anyone have anything that is surplus to requirements?!

Thanks Takayuki. I’m surprised it’s not been released digitally.

Does anyone have a copy of Concertina Music From West Clare by Elizabeth Crotty. It appears to no longer be available anywhere as it's been out of print for some time

Thanks very much for the review. Great to hear from somebody who has direct experience playing the instrument.

Good morning all - it's been a while since a posted here on the forum. I was wondering if anyone has any experience with the Irish Concertina Company traditional reeded instruments? They are very attractive and quite reasonably priced for a "real" concertina reeded instrument. The lead time is quite a bit shorter than other makers but other than the YouTube videos I don't see much about them here on the forum. Maybe I missed the postings and quite often the search function return a lot of unrelated posts. Thanks!

I may also consider a trade for an Edgley in C/G.

Any idea when Cohen Braithwaite-Kilcoyne's tutor will be available?

Good afternoon everyone. It's been a while since I've been on the forum so Happy New Year to you all. I'm considering selling my Morse G/D anglo as I've never really taken to the G/D and play my Clover kit C/G far more. Is there any interest? Obviously I'm located on an island so it'll be difficult to view it! It's a modified Jeffries layout (again one of the reasons I rarely play it). I will put up pictures a little later.

I think it’s amazing that Jody’s preparing his own book - he’s a fantastic teacher and an amazing player. Really looking forward to this one!

I’m quite excited about this book. Will it be just a tune/tab book or something more like Anglo concerting in a harmonic style which progresses so we can learn the notes etc as we go. I play my G/D as though it’s a C/G at the moment so it would be great to play it “properly”!

Hi David. I’ve got a G/D Morse I’d be willing to sell.

Something else that might be nice - the ability to transpose the recorded audio for anyone using an instrument other than a C/G

Good morning all - I have Morse Ceili #952 in black finish with Jeffries layout - try as I might I can't get my head around learning a new fingering system and I end up coming back to my Clover kit C/G Wheatstone layout more often than not. Does anyone have any interest in a very lightly played G/D Morse? It's in perfect condition I just don't play it very much. I could sell it or maybe exchange it for a C/G - it would have to be Wheatstone layout! If selling I'd be looking for about $2250. I would exchange for a Morse Ceili in C/G or a similar hybrid or perhaps a vintage instrument of similar value. I will upload pictures later.

Hi Caitlín - I just ran through the starter course and I really enjoyed the way you teach and the choice of tune. I think I might sign up!

So what’s everybody think about my climate?! It’s 80 degrees Fahrenheit plus for most of the year and 80 to 90 percent humidity most of the time also! I think the sea is maybe 15 feet from my back door. Not much like the British climate!

This is another great resource for Irish style playing! However - when will we get the same for harmonic/English style?!

I’ve been watching the new videos every day and ther hasn’t been one tune that I don’t want to learn. Really looking forward to it!

Really good!

Wonderful Adrian - really looking forward to this book.

Nice looking chart - do you have any learning resources that you could share for boeremusiek?

True those two aren’t for Irish style. But is Katyusha in D minor an Irish tune? I think it’s russian.

Nice instrument Gary - how does it play? Any new videos?

Hi Clifton - did you ever sell this? Would you be interested in a trade for a G/D Morse?
