Concertina

[stevejay]

I have been absent lately due to my efforts at Bluegrass banjo. It's hard for me, and VERY demanding of right hand rolls and a high level of accuracy. I learned to play the concertina pretty well, and lately have been thinking I have strayed too far from home.

 

It's so nice to just pick up the concertina and play at tempo. On banjo I struggle at 100bpm sometimes and for Bluegrass, that's pretty slow.

 

Just sharing , that's all carry on

 

Here's an example of something I am working on, but not me playing.

To the tune of Oh Suzanna:

 

Oh, Concertina

How I long for thee

I've spent years of wasted practice

to find the banjo's not for me

 

Enjoy.
