Please check out my TUNE OF THE MONTH @

Hello all, My name is Florence Fahy. I am an anglo concertina player from Co. Clare. I am teaching with over 15 years. I come from a background of music that is steeped in the Clare style of concertina playing. My father played, grandfather and his father before him... If you are interested in lessons, I am based in Boston, MA and I am available for in person lessons or Skype lessons to those of you living in Boston but I am also available to those of you who live in different States or countries via Skype too. I have many different levels of students currently from all over the USA and I really enjoy helping them improve and grow and learn. I have a flexible schedule and I can work with whatever is suitable for both of us. If you would like to hear and see more about me please check out my website: www.concertinachick.com On my website I also post a tune of the month for you to learn so if not lessons then just go check out my tunes!!!! I hope you have fun learning them! Thanks for checking me out! Florence Fahy

Thank you Peter Laban for the correction.

Thank you so much! So glad you enjoyed the music. The Old Wheatstone is very reliable and can't seem to find a concertina that can even compare to the sound that comes out of this old one ;-)

It looks like it is in beautiful condition. What would the action be like? Do you play yourself? A sound sample would be great.
