Great playing !!! wow (and Mike)

Don't forget to achieve this on the duet, both hands will work independently...(looooots of practice).

On the English and Anglo, they mostly work together (of course it's possible to complicate thing ;-))

There is an smartphone app for the english concertina, try it to see if it feels natural for you (it didn't to me ha ha).

Really does sound like a "Duet". Always amazing to think it is one instrument.
