Lovely ladies. Easy to miss. There are so many tags to search. Thanks for adding.

 

Some new ones I've found this week.

Interesting tune From Bolivia. First time I've heard about South American concertina. (Of the kind spoken about in this forum)

How fascinating!

From Bolivia!

Sometimes the world becomes just a bunch of places, where some rare individuals sit and play concertinas. The rest is unimportant. Am I missing something?

[Leo]

OOPS! Sorry I missed a nice one, but it's worth a look.

Then you're going to have a nice afternoon. It seems once Google merged with YouTube, they've been popping up randomly in the most unusual places.

Absolutely! What a lovely slow air! I'm very impressed with her vibrato. My next statement is inviting a well deserved shot across the bow, but here goes. In the past I've been unimpressed with recorded efforts so far to hear a concertina vibrato that didn't sound artificial.

 

This is altogether different. It is almost like the natural vibrato a voice might make. This lady does a lot of listening and thinking. Guess I'll be buying the CD.

Well, that explains a lot. No wonder she can produce a vibrato like that from a Jefferies: been playin' since she was sprite and plays the absolute fire out of a fiddle. Whew!

The music is fantastic. Unfortunately the person with the video camera seems to be practising vibrato as well!

Yeah, I noticed that. Kinda made me feel a bit woozy.

Did someone mention this spectacular video before.

And how about this one?

A PA, Melodeon (?) and an Anglo playing (living) together in peace!

I quite enjoyed that.

Nice! Interesting to see that Niall has a plaster on the Jeffries fretwork, to cover the sharp bit that cuts my little finger. Excuse my ignorance; who is the vocalist?

That guy with an Anglo, he's known for jazzyfying the Irish music, if I'm not mistaken. His work is awesome. All of them are very good, and seems like they enjoy playing together.

Now if only he would modify his concertina to have that pitch bending mechanism - he'll put the concertina world upside-down. Just imagine! As they say in Russia, it'll be a storm in the glass of water, but a nice one.

Now, on a side note, why is it that PA players always dabble as Piano players?

I'd be more impressed, if that man played a fiddle, and a fiddle player dabbled on PA, no? Or Concertina player as drummer.
