michelv Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 Hi all, Next week, I'm spending a few days in London on a shopping trip. Are there any shops you know of where I might find English Concertina tutors, sheet music or CDs there? Like folk CD shops or music shops specialized in folk and EC friendly? I'm an absolute EC beginner so I hardly have anything on EC yet. Any usuful address much appreciated. Michel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pauline de snoo Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 For folkmusic and such there is a Hobgoblin in London. Directions how to get there on the internet. That is where I went my very first time in London. Small shop under Cecil Sharp House. Pauline Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeterT Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 For folkmusic and such there is a Hobgoblin in London. Here's the link; they moved to this address some years ago: http://www.hobgoblin.com/london/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michelv Posted July 31, 2008 Author Share Posted July 31, 2008 Thanks for the Hobgoblin tip. As for the tutors: yes, probably best to buy them on the internet. Nice to browse through them before you buy though. I see that the Hobgoblin even sells ECs... bad place for the wallet. Any record shops where I might find EC CDs?

pauline de snoo Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 Any record shops where I might find EC CDs? Yes, Hobgoblin, again! Chris They sell only folk music cds on concertina and not many, but again on the internet you can also find more of those and also of other styles of music. But as for myself I can only say that my first time ever visit was a wonderful experience just to see the shop. Pauline Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
