So, having borrowed a modern A.C. Norman #AngloConcertina for a month or so at the start of the year this week I have bought my own. It’s not perfect, but it is not at all bad and was nicely priced. It is a #Lachenal and dates to around 1900, but we can’t be too precise as it is a “marriage” box which is apparently what #concertina people call a cut-and-shut assembled from several donors to make one working box.
As if I don’t already play too many instruments (badly)…

Why are the leading notes for the middle row not duplicated in the accidentals?
On the G row you can borrow D/E from the C row, not being able to play the G/A that have the same relationship to the C row on the same hand seems odd/problematic for playing in “harmonic” style (melody on the right, bass/chords on the left).

Exciting lunchtime post today!
n.b. This falls under the music books exemption (https://folksocial.org/@Phil/109614995249066785) so is not a failure of my new year’s resolution!

Here is a quick #SaturdaySqueeze - a rough and ready “King Arthur’s Servants”, because why not?
I could get to like playing the Anglo.

Posting this as @Anjicello suggested it. A reasonable resemblance to Sussex Waltz. No dots, just fudging along based on melodeon playing experience.

It seems like it ought to be relatively straight forwards, so I'm trying to resist the temptation to buy a more up to date tutor book at least until I see how I've gotten on to start with.
