Witney Concertinas - Irish

[geoffwright]

Hi All - did any of my concertina buddies get to Tim Collin's workshops at Witney this weekend?
Care to drop me a message?

Hi Geoff

 

I was not in the anglo/Irish workshop, but I can tell you that Tim's performance in the Saturday evening concert was great, and it included a duet with Simon Thoumire! I was in Simon's workshop on Scottish music for the 1srt session, then in Dave Townsend;s workshops. Great all round.

 

Regards,

Yes Geoff,

 

I was there along with Marj' and we attended all of Tim Collins' Workshops on the Saturday and Sunday. The workshops were some of the best I have ever experienced. We also echo John's comments above.

 

We found Tim to be not only an all-round nice guy but also a terrific musician (as you would expect) and a truly superb tutor. I think this last point is the one that tells, absolutely brilliant.

 

We were there mainly as Anglo system 'starters' but defaulted to English system when the going got a bit tough.

 

Good to hear from you. Do PM me if there is anything specific you need to know Geoff.

 

Robin
