Concertina Videos On Youtube

[Bruce McCaskey]

From time to time I like to go onto YouTube and search out recent concertina postings. On the assumption that others reviewing this section of the forum might be interested to see what's out there but may not be inclined to do their own search, from time to time I post collections of some of the links I've found.

 

My intent with these collections of links is to showcase examples of what others are doing with concertinas. In that light, when I decided to put this post together today I had just three recent video clips in mind - all placed on YouTube within the last month. However, as I started grabbing URL's and titles, I ran across many other, admittedly older clips that caught my attention and I took time out to watch them. Ultimately I decided to add them in too, thinking that at least some people viewing this list might be inclined towards similar distraction.

 

By the way, some of you may be interested to know that the Online Academy of Irish Music (OAIM) has recently added additional video concertina courses to their catalog. There is a fee involved for those courses, but if you are interested in playing Irish music and don't otherwise have access to an instructor, they may very well be just what you are looking for (http://oaim.ie/instrument/4/concertina). One of the links here is a sample from that expanded catalog (Irish Concertina Lessons with Liam O'Brien).
