Anglo Concertina & Button Accordion Lessons, New England

[chrisstevens]

Just a shameless plug, I've gone off into the world of full time performing and teaching

 

I have several years experience teaching the C/G Anglo Concertina, B/C & C#/D Button Accordions, and 1 row Melodeon. I specialize in the Irish style of playing these instruments, although I do have limited knowledge in other styles.

 

As well as conducting workshops at events around New England, I am a member of the faculty at the Comhaltas Ceoltóirí Éireann Boston Music School, instructing Anglo Concertina in a group class setting.

 

In addition to these group classes, I offer private lessons for all ages and experiences. I am based in Portland, Maine, but travel can be arranged. Please contact me if you are in New England and interested in lessons!

How about linking us to some sound samples of you soloing on each instrument, Chris?

[Jim Van Donsel]

I'll give two thumbs up for Chris as a teacher and player on concertina and on that other squeezy thing.

I did a class with Chris at last year's Northeast Concertina Workshop. I came out of it a better player, and I still reference what he taught me. Dude knows his 'tina.

here are some (poorly recorded) samples of my playing!

Thanks, Chris.

That playing's not too bad!
