Randy Stein Posted September 29, 2014 Posted September 29, 2014 Here's a repost. 19th century classical music. Erik Satie's Gnossienne #1. http://youtu.be/pb0ye0Gs_Bs Sorry, I'm using my wife's iPad today and don't immediately see a way to make that link active. Maybe I'll fix it next time I'm on my Mac. That was beautiful David. Great seeing you again and playing with at NESI. rss
JimLucas Posted September 30, 2014 Posted September 30, 2014 No point giving you my arrangement, as it is for Hayden Duet and goes below the range of an EC. Goes below the range of a treble EC, but should be possible on a tenor-treble.
tona Posted September 30, 2014 Posted September 30, 2014 Very well donne David. Coïncidence, I am trying to play the Gymnopedie but I have a problem with the uploading on youtube. No sound when uploaded on youtube but the video is ok on my computer.
Wolf Molkentin Posted September 30, 2014 Posted September 30, 2014 I am trying to play the Gymnopedie... The same is true for me...
tona Posted September 30, 2014 Posted September 30, 2014 Problem fixed... Another attempt with an I-Phone. Gymnopédie N°1 - Erik Satie https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vbJqi6K3B-0 It is the first tune I have to press two buttons with the same finger... bar chord on concertina?....
Stephen Mills Posted September 30, 2014 Posted September 30, 2014 (edited) I am trying to play the Gymnopedie... The same is true for me... And me. Excellent as always, Tona. Perhaps I'll shift my focus to the other classical piece I have been working on... It is the first tune I have to press two buttons with the same finger... bar chord on concertina?.... I did this commonly on Anglo, even with 3 buttons , eg. an Em chord on the left hand. On Hayden duet, sometimes a 1-5-1 chord is called for, which can be done with 1 finger, but it is very difficult to do in proper time. I have to do that with this Gymopodie, as well.

David Barnert Posted September 30, 2014 Posted September 30, 2014 Very nice, Tona. I've been trying to work that one out on my Hayden for years. For those who didn't notice, it is the same composer (Erik Satie) as the Gnossienne that I posted a couple of days ago on this thread, which also requires pressing two buttons with one finger (on the left hand). The balance is very tricky because the accompaniment requires a lot of simultaneous notes and you can't shut them up by playing them short because they really have to be long. Meanwhile the melody is very delicate, so it is difficult not to bury the melody in the accompaniment. Adrian- Yours went by at a time when I was busy with other things, but I meant to say that I really enjoyed it as well. Best to all. David
Alan Day Posted September 30, 2014 Posted September 30, 2014 Well after a long break I am submitting a tune "Trumpet and Air" by Henry Purcell Lovely tune to use as a hop step For a change I decided to play this on my Jeffries (Duet converted) Anglo BpFC Played in Bp http://youtu.be/35xpFrIvmQU Al
Tootler Posted September 30, 2014 Posted September 30, 2014 (edited) This was one I was hoping to do last month for tunes in 3 but it fits equally well this month. Minuet from Berenice by Handel - from one of his operas. I have an arrangement for recorder and piano but I was not successful in adapting the accompaniment so in the end, I have just uploaded the melody line. I ran out of time when recording earlier this evening so when I get time, I will probably add the bass line with my bass recorder and re-upload it. Edited September 30, 2014 by Tootler
