Thread Name: euphonium in Morris dancing
Subject: RE: euphonium in Morris dancing
Apparently you can. Whether you should is another matter and will depend on what flavour of Morris dancing you mean. North West - no problem. Border, probably the same. Cotswold - please don't. Cotswold depends on an interplay between dancers and musician and really needs a solo musician. I deplore the fashion for bands for Cotswold morris which makes this interplay impossible, and adding bass and rhythm instruments or percussion just make this worse.
