Dirge Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 OOh that should do it; so this concertina was owned by the famous composer of THE concertina concerto then. Fascinating! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allan atlas Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 FOLKS: as far as i know, there are six victorian concertos for the concertina. . . . . two each by Molique and Regondi one by D'Alquen one by a fellow named Bosen in addition, D'Alquen arranged some of Regondi's guitar music for solo piano. . . . . . . . .in all, he was a fellow of some note in the mid-nineteenth century.................. at the big regondi bash that we had at the CUNY Grad Center some two years ago, we had D'Alquen's arrangement of one of the guitar pieces played back to back with the original. . . . . and please note: the private hands in which the D'Alquen manuscript is now held ARE NOT MY OWN.............allan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
