    In the pipeline

    to "strengthen the position of performers in the audiovisual industry by providing a clearer legal basis for the international use of audiovisual works, both in traditional media and in digital networks. Such an instrument would also contribute to safeguarding the rights of performers against the unauthorized use of their performances in audiovisual media, such as television, film and video.

    sea songs FOR concertinas - Falmouth for 2012?

    luv to hear the toon! Such good words...

     

    Kautilya,

     

    I'll see what I can do.Cheers,

    John

    Luvverly

    Found more verses

    Your

    "Brightly beams our Father's mercy

    From his lighthouse ever more;

    But to us He gives the keeping

    Of the lights along the shore.

     

    Let the lower lights be burning,

    Send a gleam across the wave;

    Some poor fainting, struggling seaman

    You may rescue, you may save."

     

    Dark the night of sin has settled, loud the angry billows roar;

    Eager eyes are watching, longing, for the lights, along the shore.

    Let the lower lights be burning! Send a gleam across the wave!

    Eager eyes are watching, longing, for the lights, along the shore.

     

    Trim your feeble lamp, my brother, some poor sailor tempest tossed,

    Trying now to make the harbor, in the darkness may be lost.

    Let the lower lights be burning! Send a gleam across the wave!

    Trying now to make the harbor, some poor sailor may be lost.

     

    Could be a great, Mr Happy "sinalong" toon.

     

    midi but it sounds like there could be a new toon or variant on midi here to bring out the dark and the storms with some lower and higher notes!!(hint hint)

    Falmouth shanty festival - bit late but 2012?

    Isn't it a small world! Guess what I was working up on my ex-Salvation Army Crane/Triumph just before I clicked your link and read the article:

     

    "Brightly beams our Father's mercy

    From his lighthouse ever more;

    But to us He gives the keeping

    Of the lights along the shore.

     

    Let the lower lights be burning,

    Send a gleam across the wave;

    Some poor fainting, struggling seaman

    You may rescue, you may save."

     

    That was one of the first songs of any genre that I learnt as a child, and it still haunts me. I'm glad others know it, too!

     

    Cheers,

    Or is there a 'known place' where the concertina enthusiasts gather?

     

    Or you just mooch about looking for interesting things happening in corners which you then add yourself to? (I think this is what I'm expecting)

     

    Any advice for the uninitiated?

    Shame on you. U clearly have taken nothing in from the protracted discussion which has already attracted 2,184 views and 48 responses.

     

    The core message?: Play it by ear! :lol:

     

    looking forward to missing you...

    BTW G has just told me he can't make it out of his mountain fastnesses but says to thank you again for the kind offer of the lift. :)

    Did anyone find out what it fetched?

     

    N.B.:

    Laurences, Auctioneers of Crewkerne, Somerset, are offering for auction in September a Charles Jeffries Anglo with original leather case. An attractive colour photograph appears in todays edition of The Western Gazette. They apparently expect it to sell for around £800 to £1,000.

     

    So you'll just have to wait until September ... like the rest of us! ;)

     

    Cheers,

    Dick

    Maybe we should all start making a few bob online for these Jeffries by flogging our old fiddles long ago relegated to "the loft"

    But then the pleasure of a new tune from Al, for fiddle and Duet, would be more edifying! :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

    No, but if you look down in the column on the right hand side, there's a list of links of things "Related to this". One of them says "Daisy bell / Dickie bird / After the ball", and the next one says "Jingle bells / Heel and toe polka". (So I bet the other one we're hearing there is the Heel and Toe Polka, eh?)

     

    If you click on "Daisy bell /" etc. it will load the right file, and you'll be off and running.

     

    Found it !

    Leo!!!!

    Can't find no Daisy tina version out there ( can only play on high rightside of Anglo so no dying notes at bottom left on C row available) but a melodeon in C...

    ..............

    Hi Kautilaya

     

    There are two versions that sound o.k. Not a concertina, but at least they're free reed instruments.

     

    There is one of my favorite Ango concertina players sometimes associated with this guitar player, but he's noticably missing in this one. I'd check back on this channel. It might just show up one of these days. (I like the guitar player too.) You never know what will show up on the internet.

     

    I can't get this to play, and I don't know if it's the right version. I don't know if it's because I'm in the US, or it's just my computer, but it promises a concertina played by Scan Tester.

    If I were down under in Australia, I might ask the library if track 17 is the correct version.

    That's about the best I can do on short notice. :D

     

    Thanks

    Leo

    luvvlyjubbly.tks

    ps :because I'm in the US, or it's just my computer" Could it ve being blocked by a black monolith in space :o :o

    The BL worked here but aint got Daisy on it - I find sometimes the cataloguing is not always what it should be! I'll put an error slip thru next time I am in the Music Reading Room.

    This is the version for transposed baritone[Ref Crabb Nebula, double-reeded via Queeg/ Red Dwarf] presumably as the bellows oxygen ran out

    Perhaps this should be in learning & instruction for the brain implantation of notes for easier learning by ear and a "stylized left hand:. :D

    As Anglo-concertinas (along with Melodeons, Bandoneons, and Chemnitzers) are BISONoric instruments; I think we must expect a STAMPEDE !!!

    Inventor.

    Jeffries spotted at car boot sale and seller said "me Nan has another one at home and I can bring along next time but it's really dusty"

     

    Bids (all retained) for exact location with 90 per cent to Cnet can be made here:
