Thanks for an amazing piece of work. I love it and have been enjoying the challenge :0 of learning it (at least trying to) on English concertina. I realised on the English of course I should be able to learn the bits in their original keys and went to listen to that, but… I like yours better! Just about getting it (snail version) and all good until I had to figure out the chords for the band… eugh to that! Thanks for your tunes generally. You’re an inspiration.
It certainly looks like a bit of a fight :o) Thanks for your reply. I see what you mean about staying in the same key, I'd not thought of that one.... not sure I'll be able to play that bridge in C. I'll have to have a look. I also noticed, as you say, that the transpoition would probably be what is needed rather than a straight top line transpoition. Thanks for the advice. Keep posting :o)
Really inspiring playing. I love what you do on the basses though it all flies by so quickly I'm not sure what is happening. I think I need to try and slow the video down to figure it out. I so want to play this tune in the magnificent style you have demonstrated. I detect some late night sessions coming on!
I do stay in D for that bridge - it wouldn't make sense to change key, especially as it is followed by the same music as preceded it, also in D. I think I also worked from original sheet music in B flat. To work out the chord changes in that bridge, I had to transpose it on paper, and then look at which notes I could play, or rather which were the most important notes to play and what I could leave out. And thank you - This has to be one of the hardest things I've ever tried to play! Anahata
Fantastic playing there anahatamelodeon, I allways fancied an oakwood they're made not far from me,I'll make do with my pokerwork & dino baffetti for now.
I especially enjoyed the piece about 3/4 through. Sweet, tuba and horn sections. Thanks for the opportunity to see and hear your, various, excellent stuff. It must be a lot of practice time, now and prior?
Hi. Love the job you have done here. I was wondering if you could give me some advice. I play on a D whistle and do third section in C and am trying to decide how to go about that 8 bar bridge passage.It sounds to me as you stay in D for it. I might have to drop to G. I only have dots in Bb, I don't fancy trying to work something out by ear for that bit. Any advice before I get stuck into the job would be nice. Thanks in advance and thanks for posting what you do, love it.
I love how melodeons can play such a diverse amount of music and what you _can_ play more often than not sounds like it was written for it.
Superbly well played - and with an excellent bass accompaniment.
Almost 14 years ago and still a miracle, I mangle this so well that evrythings ready to hang out and finish drying.
Absolutely gorgeous! Brings back memories of Monty Python!
'what fun this was I really wasn't expecting the Spanish Inquisition ! so well thought out and played , what talent
how utterly gorgeous
I've said it before and I'll say it again....... Stunning.
what a thing to do - marvellous
I've never heard a melodeon impersonating a barrel organ before, this is fabulous! Well done, as usual.
Come on - Souza is impossible on the box! Hang on - I've just seen and heard it! Utterly magnificent :-) Thanks for posting.
Superb rendering of the well nigh impossible for lesser mortals!
Bravo! What a splendid performance! You set the highest possible standard. Thanks for posting this.
Unreal! Completely superb

This is fantastic. You really know how to play a melodeon.
Fabulous
