The Foxhunters: English Country Dance With 'round Robbin

[Dave Marcus]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZkfGIUobkD8&feature=youtu.be: An English Country Dance performed to an Irish slip jig (the Foxhunters) last month by 'Round Robbin, we being Meredith Doster, flute; myself on concertinas; and Robbin Marcus, piano.

 

Some nice noises on my new baritone in the middle - I am TERRIFICALLY happy with the instrument for playing this kind of music..

Yes, very nice, and well played.

 

I've often thought about a baritone Anglo, but not sure it would provide much utility for the kind of music I play. Certainly wouldn't be very good for Morris playing! But it would be fun to play baritone in a contra band and for English ceilidh.

Had my first contra rehearsal with it last week. Early feelings are that it may be heard to get the drive and lift out of it for reels.
