Volume One of the concertina tutor (English Concertina Course) has been written during my BMus studies on Concertina at the Conservatoire of Fontys University and is for absolute beginners with the aim to provide an enjoyable way of learning to play the concertina.
Progress should be smooth and easy, without gaps, resulting in the development of technique and the knowledge required to play in a variety of musical styles. Although the book starts with reading notes a lot of attention is given to playing by ear, rhythms, musical terms, playing chords, improvising and the use of bellows. Familiar tunes are used to begin with. Two cds are included on which is extra audio and video material as well as pdf files with lots of extra exercises.
Included is a technical appendix by Dave Elliott.
The Anglo Concertina Course has been adapted from the English Concertina Course Volume One and contains one play-along cd including some video material.
