Nice. This sounds very like "Green Fields of America"

Superb playing!
Ahhh.. just read that these are self-penned. I amend my “lovely” to “astounding”!

Lovely stuff, Sid!
Luv this Sid!!!
Lovely.
BRAVO!!!!
🙏Many thanks Andy
Boom banger!
gorgeous set 🌺
Many thanks 🌱🌿
Both the sound and the playing are absolutely top notch. Is this concertina a refurbished antique one? I recently started to play a Lachenal Maccan duet that I bought from Barleycorn Concertinas. It’s a world on it’s own. Pocket pleasure, these little jewels 😊.
Love both the compositions and the playing. Beautiful video too. Very curious as to what sort of reeds your concertina has. Brass or steel? Nice growly sound.
Hi Christopher thanks very much. It's an 1881 Wheatstone with steel reeds and a dear old friend.
That's a fine-sounding instrument, Sid, and well played. Are those baffles fastened to the ends of your concertina?
Thanks very much Micheal. They're plates of wood to raise up the ends so the buttons sink right into the holes (almost). I made them from Lignum Vitae as it's self lubricating. Finished them the day before making the video and I'm so happy with the feel although it's taking some getting used to. All the best
I did the same thing on mine
What a beautiful tune, will you be publishing the score?
Hi Kim thanks very much. I've never actually written it down but I'll look into it. All the very best.
Links to the scores are now in the video description. Enjoy
@@SidGoldsmith Thank you so much Sid, I will treasure it....
Wheatstone ET from 1880 - is that an extended tenor? What is the lowest note? How many buttons and range?
HI. It's extended treble. So starting at the standard treble range on the bottom (G) and going for whole octaves to a high G. These were made to represent the full range of a violin. The top notes don't get used so much
