MikeP Posted August 1, 2004 Share Posted August 1, 2004 I have a musician friend who has become pretty good on the tinwhistle. Now that I'm a major concertina guy I'm curious to hear how these two sound in concert. Can anyone point me to an appropriate link to a downloadable MP3 sample with tinwhistle and Anglo concertina -- particularly without other accompaniment? -- Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why not record youselves together? Even if Sean Potts and Noel Hill had recorded a CD together, you two probably wouldn't sound quite the same. But I bet you'll still sound pretty good, and you'll also be able to hear what you need to do if you want to make it better. And of course, we'll hope you put some of your own recordings where we can download them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henk van Aalten Posted August 1, 2004 Share Posted August 1, 2004 Why not record youselves together? ... Or even better... Why not join the C.Net Big Band?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Henk van Aalten Posted August 1, 2004 Share Posted August 1, 2004 Mike Nice tune.. can you tell me the title of this one? BTW: I'm very interested to know what kind of tin whistle this is! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeP Posted August 1, 2004 Author Share Posted August 1, 2004 Must apologize. I was trying to be cute responding to Jim's post. I had "Band in a Box" (wunnerful program by the way) do a little "Father O'Flynn" with whistle and harmonica (can't believe the GS midi standard doesn't even include concertina). I shut it down after one chorus and converted it to MP3. Never touched by human hand.... By the way, Stephen Mills was kind enough to send me another, similar, midi file but much nicer, which I've made available here: http://home.comcast.net/~mp/omkwhistle.mid This gives me a sense of it, but the midi stuff is really a little ersatz -- if anyone comes across an MP3 or recording with actual tinwhistle and Anglo concertina either alone or right out front, I'd appreciate the reference. -- Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Bradbury Posted August 1, 2004 Share Posted August 1, 2004 There might be a recording or two on the "Russell Family of Doolin, County Clare" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeP Posted August 1, 2004 Author Share Posted August 1, 2004 Well, I found one. Now that I've come this far I really should share the link for those who got sucked in and are now a little curious. It's called "The Orange Rogue," the first listed here: http://nowhereradio.com/artists/album.php?aid=2171&alid=319 It's an MP3, about 2.5 Meg. -- Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JimLucas Posted August 2, 2004 Share Posted August 2, 2004 Well, I found one. ... It's called The Orange Rogue, the first listed here: Hmm. A double jig played as a waltz. Works well, though, as many do. Cheers to Aldon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandy Winters Posted August 2, 2004 Share Posted August 2, 2004 The first John Williams album has several duets with concertina and whistle (Micho Russell on whistle). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
