The New Concertina Reel -audio with dropbox pdf, midi,xml, etc

[Matt Heumann]

I found his obscure version of the more familiar reel in an old collection back in the 70s. By the 80s, I was young & getting pretty nimble (aka recklessly fast), and came up with a set of variations for the tune, creating quite the "party piece". I stumbled upon this ancient audio of me playing it, way too fast (probably in private) and have no idea who recorded it. Remember we were all young and foolish once! So forgive the quality and enjoy the variations:

Though I haven't played it in almost 40 years and never wrote it down on paper, I've recently tried my best to transcribe the variations: You can get the pdf, midi, musicxml, xml, and the notation programs self generated playback in the folder labeled "The New Concertina Reel"

dismiss any prompts to sign in or do anything other than access the file, then continue on to enjoy!
