She plays the bandoneon better than I ever plan to, so cheers there. 😃 I suspect that her musicianship is adequate to many purposes, but I agree that this is not a flattering style for Bach. I think that's some of the reason I can't stand Glenn Gould's take on the Goldberg Variations that everyone raves about.

The meaning of the term concertina “size”
Ransom replied to Collectauke's topic in General Concertina Discussion
The nice thing about counting the ridges is that you can see them all even with the bellows closed. So they're a particularly natural thing to count. -
Nah, Englishes have their outside rows aligned with the inside rows. This looks more like the Stark/Chromatiphon duet that Wim Wakker makes.

The silly eye-roll made me uncertain. =) In your computer's defense, it is a single-reeded sound, where most of the accordions are a little wet.

Are you working the bellows ... improperly? What makes you think so? Are you getting particular results that you wish were different in some way?

I think Greg Jowaisas tends to have a few of those on hand. You might be able to spare yourself the rigors of transatlantic shipping and currency conversion. -
Concertina Newsletter/free Reed Magazine
Ransom replied to wes williams's topic in General Concertina Discussion
I have 13, 14, 17, 18, 19 and 21. If any of those are missing bits, I might be able to scan them for you. -
"Notes" here are what we would call "reeds". "Screwed" would refer to the method by which the reeds were attached to the frames.

Tune Of The Month For October, 2013: Xotis Romanes
Ransom replied to Jim Besser's topic in Tune of the Month
Yeah, the tune-o-tron doesn't do it either. But I was confident that somebody would support it, because it's in the standard: http://abcnotation.com/wiki/abc:standard:v2.1#clefs_and_transposition
