Anglo Concertina Teacher In South London?

[JohnS]

I'm looking for an anglo concertina teacher for regular lessons to get me going - i'm a beginner. I live in SE London but can travel say to N London or Surrey. Thanks. John

Hi John,

 

I'm in Rayleigh, Essex and would be happy to teach you if you can't find anyone nearer.

Thanks Les. I think it's a bit too far travel wise but I'll keep that in mind.

Given the right natural aptitude you can teach yourself to play an Anglo.

I'm pretty sure Jody Kruskal does lessons via skype. If you are going to have lessons it's probably advisable to have them with an experienced teacher and excellent player of the anglo concertina. Jody certainly is an excellent player. With skype there would be no travel involved at all so no petrol or tube ticket costs. I've no idea what the cost would be but a bit more expensive these days for Brits after, what was it you did? Brexit?

[Jody Kruskal]

Thanks for the kind words Steve.

 

Yes John, I have Anglo students world-wide who want assistance as they work on playing in the harmonic/English style. Just check out my web site... http://jodykruskal.com/concertina_lessons.html

 

I've figured out a method of distance learning that works very well with my students.

 

Actually, I'm in England at the moment on my yearly folk club tour. I'll be driving from Watford to Dorking tomorrow for my Wednesday evening club performance there. Amazingly enough, I have some time on my hands in the afternoon and would enjoy meeting you for a lesson. However, it seems unlikely that you would be free then on such short notice or that we could find a location that was convenient for both of us. Still, email me if you like, my address is available from my web site contact button.

 

Best of luck on your concertina adventure.

Hi Jody. Thanks for getting in touch. I'm off to ireland tomorrow morning to see old friends back on Mon the 21st. how long are you in England for?

[Jody Kruskal]

Sorry, I leave the 22nd.

Highly recommend Jody. I took lessons via Skype from him when I first got my Anglo and they were invaluable.
