Acqua Posted May 3, 2020 Share Posted May 3, 2020 (edited) Heard this wonderful rendition and am looking for some notation for concertina. Cheers! Edited May 3, 2020 by Acqua Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John, Wexford Posted May 3, 2020 Share Posted May 3, 2020 You'll find it here: http://abcnotation.com/tunePage?a=abc.sourceforge.net/abcMIDI/original/coll.txt/0005 Mind you, the tune, as played in the video, is being played in the key of C, whereas the tune, as written on the abcnotation site, is in the key of G. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petey Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 I saw that same video and wanted to learn "Gypsy's Hornpipe", found it wasn't too easy. The same guy plays "Orange in Bloom" which I've been learning and it sounds pretty nice. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If by 'notation for concertina', you mean a tabbed score, please say what key you want it in, and what sort of 'tina you have (G/D or C/G), and I will send you a score with 'advisory' tabs added (ABC or PDF - your choice). I need to try my program out on some willing volunteers ...? If you are looking for a pre-existing printed score, there are versions in G and/or D in: Nick Barber's English Choice (Barber) Hardcore English (Callaghan) 1000 English Country Dance Tunes (Raven) Greenwich Traditional Musicians Co-operative Tune Book (Offord) and additionally there are versions in the following ABC files/tunebook: Richard Robinson's Tune Book melnets_big_abc_file.abc (I can't find the URL - look on melodeon.net?) There were more but I either can't find the URL, or the organisation has ditched its web site for a Facebook page (and I can't be bothered with Facebook).

I have a C/G anglo and tabs in the key of C in a pdf would be much more helpful since I'm not particularly well versed in ABC yet.

I've tabbed a version of the tune which can be found in the Melnet Big ABC File (good job I took a copy - I still can't find the URL!!). I had to transcribe the tune from G to C (this is easy in ABC). There are several versions of a tune called 'Gipsy Hornpipe' kicking around, I think I got the right one! I've supplied two versions, an octave apart. The higher one is a bit 'squeaky' but you can pick whichever one suits you best. Outside of my own circle of acquaintances, you are the first person to whom I've supplied a tabbed score, and I'm effectively working 'blind' here, so if either of the tabbed scores is not what you asked for, give me some feed-back and I'll have another go. The tab system is (more or less) the one described on the Australian Bush Tradition web pages, but the system is fairly self-explanatory. The tabs are 'advisory' in the sense that there are many notes on a 30-button Anglo which are duplicated. For example, I can get G by pressing the third right-hand button on the C-Row (R3), or the first right-hand button on the D-row (dR1). I have supplied only one of the two (sometimes three) options. This is a subjective choice, and I need to look carefully at this with a view to possibly changing things in the future. Good luck, and do let me know how you get on - feed-back is important.

Acqua Posted May 20, 2020 Author Share Posted May 20, 2020 Thank you! I do have a 30 button anglo so I will definitely play around with it. Cheers, Jared Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh hey, that's me! Thanks for providing tabs, RJH. I first heard it from one of the Button Box's demonstration videos (starts at 00:29) and played it from memory much later, so I didn't get the chords 100% right.

If you have any specific comments, particularly relating to the specific note/button allocations, please let me know. Thank you.These note/button allocations are entirely arbitrary at the moment, and I am keen to get feed-back which will allow me to make a more 'optimal' choice when there is more than one option for a particular note.

gcoover Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 (edited) And here, at the bottom of the page, is Luke's beautiful arrangement with full accompaniment (with his blessing)......but with different tablature notation. Luke plays with Berkeley Morris, check out their awesome new "Zoomingtion" tradition: Gary Gypsy-Hornpipe-C-ANGLO-Luke-Hillman.pdf Edited July 4, 2020 by gcoover 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
