GUEST,Warren fahey | Help: Why a finger in the ear? (127* d) | RE: Help: Why a finger in the ear? | 12 Jun 11 |
I think many are underestimating the creative power of the traditional musician. the finger in the ear or cupped ear is, as many here have noted, a means of staying closer to the tune. Sarah Ogen Gunning springs to mind (check the videos). Ewan MacColl used it for the same reason ... It was not an affectation. he told me it helped his concentration and failing hearing. |
