maybe Greg Jowaisas

Hi, thanks, but "perpendicular" to what?

I think Klezmer works very well on the English -- as all Middle Eastern tunes do -- such as Miserlou.

the problem is the Anglo. The English puts dogs to sleep.

Does anyone play the melody for accompaniment rather than chords? If so, how is it done? Note for note with the voice or how? Are there any examples to listen to? Thanks

what was the last year that Lachenal edeophones had bowing valves

When were bowing valves last installed in the Edeophone?

Great as always. I would be interested in the bit of history about the accompaniment you mentioned

can you ship to USA?

I think you are probably asking for too much, that is, a vintage instrument that fulfills the requirements you indicate. You might find a tutor model of a Lachenal for that price but it would not likely, for example, be something you would want to keep for a long time. But look at the website of Chris Algar in the UK or contact Greg Jowaisis at gjowaisis@fiopticscam1 or search his page on this site

Some very nice melodies are often hidden behind music that played at a high speed

salt air is not the problem. The problem is humidity.
