- This version of Speed The Plough is from the manuscript of William Clarke of Feltwell in Norfolk. The book was probably compiled around 1820 - 1850. You can find it in ABC and PDF form on Mary's web site at www.maryhumphre...
Stybarrow Crag is from Lakeland Fiddler William Irwin of Elterwater (1822 to 1889).
I'm not entirely sure these tunes work as a set speed-wise - what they have in common for us is that we learned them both at the same time!
Mary Humphreys - English Concertina
Anahata - melodeon
Beautiful rendition of "Speed the plough " certainly different but this is what makes it so lovely to listen to the old English and indeed Irish tunes of long ago . first class !
❤
Splendid sound. I especially like the West Gallery style bass on Plough.
Don't usually like melodies with a surfeit of 'Twiddly Bits' This is an exception.Great to listen to.
Thanks !!!
Great job!
Now I wonder how difficult it would be to play Speed the Plough on my seven Button mini melodeon.
'Interesting' I would have thought.....;-)
The previous message was from me by the way. Didn't know jofiddle was logged in.
I can't tell if the look on this guys face is pure dread, or hes just really in the zone. Either way, sounds great.
Prolly just in the Zone. I am told i have a scarey face when in the Zone. I have practiced a blank smile, so now not scarey, just insane
It's called the 'right brain' look, common for musicians when playing something a bit complicated - concentrating on getting it right. You see this 'look' on artists too, when they are drawing. It is the expression in self-portraits.
He looks deep in concentration
@@StephenJRowley Quite so - it is an outward sign that the brain does not want to deal with any input or output not directly related to the tune you are playing
Nice rendition of an old 'sessions' favourite, minus the over-use of 'ornamentation'......
