david fabre Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 (edited) Hi all, I eventually had a little time to record something on my new Edgley G/D. It's called Robin's Waltz. The playing is not perfect, with a few wrong notes, and my mic is not an exceptionnal one but this is the best I can do now. I hope you enjoy.

I certainly did not notice any "wrong" notes. Good for you! ...wait. Now that I've thought about it, it's terrible. You should quit playing the concertina altogether and send your Edgley to me...

tona Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 Nice! I have heard for the first time this tune composed by Jon Sayne on a CD ("half as happy as we") by Andy Cutting, Karen Tweed, Ian Carr and Chris Wood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAc Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 Nice - solid and lively playing, sure an enjoyable listening experience! only thing that comes to mind is that there are slightly disturbing side noises in the recording - if I'm not mistaken, a lot of it is the leather hand straps squeaking against the wood... I had the same problem and fixed it by putting a felt liner (sort of a cloth washer) in between the strap bearings and the wood casing - doesn't exactly look cool but serves the purpose...

david fabre Posted January 13, 2011 Author Share Posted January 13, 2011 (edited) Thanks for the appreciations ; this encourages me to practise again and I hope to be able to post better recordings soon ! Ruediger : about the side noises, I'll check about the hand straps issue ; however I think most of the extra noise you hear is actually due to the air button. At several times I'm nearly at full extension and have to close the bellows rapidly while playing on the push. I'm also recording with the mic pointing at the right end. With this setting the melody is a bit louder than the chords ; but noises coming from the air button are also amplified Edited January 13, 2011 by david fabre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
