Ptarmigan Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 (edited) I just came across two Bb/F sound files on this page. http://homepage.eircom.net/~shields/ I wondered where I might hear more on the Bb/F? Ta I always, always enjoy tuning my Fiddle down to play with Flat Uilleann Pipes & I remember playing in a 'C' session at Derrygonnelly one year for 12 hours. It was a truly magical experience, with flat Pipes, C Flute, 3 Fiddles tuned down & Guitar. It was a real honour & privilege for me to have been part of that session. Concert D sounds so harsh, after playing in C, don't you think? As for playing up in Eb, it just sounds so thin, I feel like my ears are going to start bleeding!

PeterT Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 I wondered where I might hear more on the Bb/F? Hi Dick, I don't play in an Irish style, but have several recordings on my YouTube channel: http://uk.youtube.com/profile?user=pgtrimming I will set up a Playlist titled "Jeffries Anglo", and move a few recordings in there. Regards, Peter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You certainly have posted a lot of videos there & I suspect it'd take me a good while to work out where all the Bb ones were! Cheers Dick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Laitch, & how gorgeous does the Concertina sound on those tracks eh. Yes, I'm going to have to buy that CD, but I notice a lot of on-line stores are out of stock! I guess I'll need to go shop at Custys: http://www.custysmusic.com/ Hi Dick,I think Gearoid O hallmhurain plays a Bb/F Jeffries in a lot of his recordings.Regards David. Thanks David. I did find a nice YouTube of Gearoid, which I'm sure you have all seen: So yes, another man's CDs I'll need to buy then.

pipives Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 I have a CD by Noel Hill, simply called 'The Irish concertina' and there is some Bb playing on there. I don't know whether the CD is still available, the one I have says 1988 in it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
