Taking New Students On The EC

[Randy Stein]

For anyone interested in learning to play or improve their playing on the English Concertina, I have a few slots open for new students.

I'm located on the east coast in the US. I have students across the pond and all around the US and Canada. I teach via Zoom.

All lessons are crafted to benefit your individual need and improvement in bellow control, fingering technique, and playing abilities. I supply pdfs of all music.

If interested ping me and we'll start a conversation.

First, I couldn't figure out how to send you a private message so I've resorted to replying to your post. 

Second, yes, my name is also Randy Stine and I'm interested in learning the EC.

I found your Montage on YouTube as I've been researching squeezeboxes.  I was very much struck by the difference in the sound produced from you EC and all the others I've seen on YT. Why does it sound like you're playing a full blown accordion when other ECs I've heard sound like an harmonica? I'm sure it's a combination of quality instruments, experience, and talent, but the difference was striking. 

Lastly, what advice can you give me to start off finding an affordable, quality beginner EC? 

TIA,

Randy Stine
