Rhomylly Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 Hooray! I just bought a gently used Jack baritone from a fellow c-netter, with an expected delivery of Friday (but more reasonably Tuesday). I've been wanting to try English for years, and have been drooling at my monitor every time I go to the concertinaconnection site. I am so excited!

Now you can play the baritone part on our shape note hymns at the Palestine Squeeze-in...especially the maudlin ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhomylly Posted February 16, 2006 Author Share Posted February 16, 2006 (edited) What fun! Now you can play the baritone part on our shape note hymns at the Palestine Squeeze-in...especially the maudlin ones. But I already learned the alto parts on the Edgley! (/end whine) Although I'm wondering if Magnolia Waltz wouldn't be easier on the English. My Edgley doesn't have that low G# and it's really throwing me off. Well, it looks like I'll have time to try it out and see! Edited to Add: Of course, it'd all be an octave lower than everyone else, but that's probably okay!

My Edgley doesn't have that low G# and it's really throwing me off. Well, it looks like I'll have time to try it out and see! Magnolia IS easier on the English, and I play it that way. Although you could just skip the G#. That was just an old Georgia fiddler who is putting some slides into it. No whining on the hymns....you'll have the only baritone there!! We do have a (Wheatstone) bass player below you. I could spot for you on the baritone I suppose, since you normally sing alto...but think of the adventure of playing Evening Shade in a deep voice....

Chris Timson Posted February 17, 2006 Share Posted February 17, 2006 What fun! Now you can play the baritone part on our shape note hymns at the Palestine Squeeze-in... Just curious. Isn't Palestine a long way to go for a Squeeze-In? I mean, I thought Sweden was a fair trek ... Waiting's difficult, but if I had the hankering to play English it would be baritone. Have fun.
