MatthewVanitas Posted April 17, 2014 Author Share Posted April 17, 2014 Some great additions; I've added Böhmer's track to my YouTube playlist for "voice and solo concertina". Also another member pointed out this track in the other thread about (American) Civil War-era songs: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qDud8Q377zE . "Her Bright Smile Haunts Me Still" is one of my favorite songs of that era, and it sounds great on concertina. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adrian brown Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 Thank you all. I´m glad you like it. It´s my first video, I edited (cut) it myself and I´m planning on more. Video is quite new to me, right now I´m exploring the new possibilities. Yes Adrian, I wanted to go to the Concertina Meeting but couldn´t make it. I miss that input I got last year. I´m still greatful for your advice and teaching. Yes Adrian, I wanted to go to the Concertina Meeting but couldn´t make it. I miss that input I got last year. I´m still greatful for your advice and teaching. And so am I as to this year's meeting, whereas in 2013 I hadn't been available for attending Adrian's class because I didn't want to skip lessons from Simon who did a great job too. Best wishes - Wolf Thanks for your kind comments - I'm glad my input was of some use to you both. I'll certainly be back again next year, at least if Robbie will have me :-) Adrian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Wilson Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 "Musik Böhmer and his Concertina from Hell" performing a blues classic "Dust my Broom". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k3Asf1a7VEE Wow, that's fantastic Stefan, very innovative. I really enjoyed this and will have to work on this type of blues delivery on english, a bit more restricted perhaps. To be a pedant, is this truely "Solo singer with concertina"? what with loops and beat box? Well yes, there's only one singer. But did Matthew mean concertina as the only instrument? Who cares, what you've done is great and a very pro video too. I suspect you've a better program than imovie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stefan Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Thank you Steve. I edited the video with "Lightworks" a professional software and it is free as long as you only produce Youtube quality videos. It took a while to learn it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Wilson Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 G'day Stefan, Thanks for the tip re "Lightworks". I've only looked at the homepage so far. If I can find some time I'll delve further. I was wondering how you mic'd the concer but deft use of the pause button revealed the wire across your thigh. You sneeky fella, the mics are well concealed under your wrists. Would they be microvox or something else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Steve, here is an earlier post where you can see what I did. http://www.concertina.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=15380&p=145566 The mics I use are mentioned at the end.

MatthewVanitas Posted January 2, 2015 Author Share Posted January 2, 2015 Just wanted to bump this thread in case anyone got any concertina recordings for Christmas and has run across any more examples of singers backed up solely by concertina. I got another iTunes giftcard, so shall go forth and seek myself as well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StuartEstell Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 I'm just uploading my new album to Bandcamp, Matthew - it's a set of nautical songs. Two songs each on anglo, Jeffries duet, and Maccann, one on piano. Will post it on its own thread once it's up - the final track is 16 mins long and taking ages to travel up the pipe...

MatthewVanitas Posted May 13, 2017 Author Share Posted May 13, 2017 Reviving a dead topic; I'll go and search for more audio tracks and YouTube videos. Meanwhile, and of y'all have any other examples to add to the list? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
