i would really like to know what kind or type you are playing - i love the sound so much -my great grandfather played and i have always wanted to learn i miss his music is it english or anglo
@missnomilove It's English. Actually it's a "tenor treble" so it goes down a bit lower than a standard instrument. They vary a lot in quality though - it can be hard to find a nice one!
IMHO it's played way too fast. There is no clear beat and there is virtually no lift. This is dance music but I cannot imagine dancing to it. Great finger dexterity but there is no nyah to the playing. It's up to you to find the nyah....
Thanks for your comment. I disagree that it's necessarily played too fast, tho agree I'd play it better a bit slower.
I agree that this tune may sometimes be played for dancing, but disagree strongly that that is the only "proper" way it should be played, or that an English should "try" to sound like an Anglo. When I listen to music I want to hear listening music, not dance music.
It's true about the lift - I think that often when one plays one thinks there's more dynamic range than there is.
look it dont care how fast it is played the thing is tht if you are goin to play it fast then do it properly and make a tune and not just a string of notes and ye the second posting is much better

Good, nice relaxed playing and very steady. Always wanted to play the concertina, accordion or melodeon and I will some time.
