Looks like he is not the only one to play that way:

Simon Thoumire and Jim Sutherland

 

Or this:

 

I guess whatever works. :unsure: Sounds like they are both successful :blink:

 

Thanks

Hermann Strack, the Dutch EC player I bought my EC from, holds his Tina in about the same tilted angle. And plays very good!!

No, no, it´s not at all a question of quality - I just wondered about the angle of the instrument being placed on the leg. I (and that´s how I hold it myself) just met people playing it horizontally not almost vertically :-)

When I heard that I should save the bellows from rubbing, I tried to place an instrument's end on my knee, and I wasn't stable, so it kind of shifted and tilted by itself untill it ended up just like in the video. Stable, but uncombortable. And I didn't like assimmetric hands' position, been aware of the consequences. But it does add to the agility of the sound. Goram's handle ideas come to mind.

I guess it's early for me to experiment with this.

Well, it was a fine morning, and I wanted to capture the moment. Video nerves caused a few glitches.

A fine morning for a fine tune - I really like that one...

 

Can I hear a bit of an Alistair Anderson influence here?

 

;)
