brian.s Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 Well I just got my new 20 button anglo. Don't know a thing about it but already I love it. So now I am looking for musical recordings of 20 button anglo as a source of inspiration. Looks like there's not much out there, or at least whatever's out there is not well identified. Can any one offer any suggestions? Thanks for any assistance rendered. brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Dunk Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 You could take a look at the Recorded tunes link page, then you could do worse than downloading Alan Day's excellent series of audio lessons for the 20 button anglo. I can't find a direct link to that just now but someone will be along shortly to do just that I'm sure. Oh and welcome to the forum btw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can any one offer any suggestions? Thanks for any assistance rendered. brian As the others have said, starting with Alan Day's tutor is a great idea. If you are looking for inspiration from recordings of two row players, you should check out the William Kimber CD (Absolutely Classic, EFDSS) for English style on a 20 button, and Dooley Chapman for an Australian take on it (find it via Google). For traditional Irish on a 20 button, search this Forum for a recording of Micho Doyle. Also, check out any recording of Kitty Hayes (A Touch of Clare is a good one) or Elizabeth Crotty. If they are playing in C or G, they are likely playing only the 20 buttons. Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Hersh Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 In particular, the tunes on that page that Klaus Guhl plays on his Klilngethal Silvetta concertina are played on a 20-button. You could take a look at the Recorded tunes link page... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
klaus guhl Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 now I am looking for musical recordings of 20 button anglo as a source of inspiration. Brian if you know what ABC means this http://concertina.datenbrei.de/?ABC-Musik/ABC-Musikst%FCcke will help. Even in german you will find a lot of links to tune compatible for two rows. Trial and error. Easier wil be this http://home.allgaeu.org/kwenger/konzertina/ and look here http://home.allgaeu.org/kwenger/konzertina/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Al Alan, I'm afraid you've given out my url with a typo. It's http://www.etanbenami.com and then select Anglo Concertina Tutor from the no-frills directory listing. I've given it as a link here, so anyone interested can just click it. This is a left over website from a project that I completed, and it has enough room to host a few more things. I promise not put up any pictures of nude humans with concertinas or advertise herbal supplements to improve your playing. And I really do recommend Alan Day's tutor for anyone who does not have a teacher available. -- Etan (not Ethan, Eton, Etam, Aetan, Atan, Eitan, or Fred -- though those are all good names) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan Day Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 Sorry I spealt your name wrong Etan (or was it Fred),I have a mental block with names and even for me to get a near miss with yours is a compliment to your help with this link.With about seven hundred hits on the link to your site so far represents a hell of a lot of CDs and postage you are saving me. As for Latin since Roger Digby retired from teaching it,it has lost a bit of it's charm. Al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
