Daniel Hersh Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 We've pulled together information about all the planned World Concertina Day in-person and online events that we know about into one web page at https://concertina.org/world-concertina-day-events . I think it's a pretty impressive list! If you're planning something that isn't yet listed that you'd like us to include, contact us at wcd@concertina.org to let us know.

Ex Libris Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 A really impressive list Daniel. I’m working with Colin Whyles on a short film for World Concertina Day which includes a symphonion solo! We’ve also made a fascinating link between the instrument and some Victorian sheet music. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CraneDriver Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 I'm been using #worldconcertinaday too! There's so much going on now, it should be a super event! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Takayuki YAGI Posted February 6, 2022 Share Posted February 6, 2022 It looks like a lot of people on Twitter are enjoying the day (although there are many Japanese due to the time difference). https://twitter.com/search?q=%23worldconcertinaday&src=recent_search_click&f=live Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Barnert Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 Some great stuff here. Cohen B-K, of course, and Randy and Jim, but who is this “goisagi” person? Really nice work. And what kind of instrument? I had just about convinced myself from the layout and the fingering that it was a Hayden when I noticed some bellows reversals that wouldn’t make sense outside the context of Anglo.

Goisag-san's instrument is Clover of Concertina Connection with Jeffries layout, I believe. Edited February 7, 2022 by gtotani Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couldn't agree more - it is apparent that a lot of heart blood has found its way into the organization of rhat remarkable WCD. Thanks so much to everyone involved! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
