Woody Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 Does anyone know of any really good English style anglo tutors? There a lots of Irish ones, but not so many English Style ones. Try Roger Digby's "Faking it" or JK's 3 part article on Anglo playing. For an excellent audio tutorial see Alan Day's Anglo tutorial - W Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin Harrison Posted June 1, 2007 Share Posted June 1, 2007 I would start with Bertram Levy's book that takes you immediately to tunes RH, accompaniment LH in a staightforward way.There's also the CD with it. Robin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcus Posted June 1, 2007 Author Share Posted June 1, 2007 Thanks folks, I actually have Bertram Levy's book and have gone through that. I was hoping that there might be something more! I have Alan Day's tutor and I'm working on that now, but I don't really learn by ear so I've downloaded the sheet music to accompany the audio. I like the Faking It method and I'm hoping to progress to that. As an overview to Englisg style playing I found John Kirkpatricks series pretty good, but I wish there'd been more than just 3 articles!

In concertina.com http://www.concertina.com/anglo/index.htm you can find a couple of older tutors for the "anglo german" concertina, e.g., Jones' tutor. Those are in the English style: melody on the right hand and accompaniment on the left. ocd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JK was supposed to have been working on a DVD Anglo tutorial with Mrs Casey records - similar to his "How to play Melodeon" DVDs. When I contacted John last summer to ask about this he said it was due to be out last Autumn - but no sign of it yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
