Thread Name: I got a bombarde!
Subject: RE: I got a bombarde!
I was at Bampton this year and entertained hugely by some Breton Bombardiers. The bar had become too noisy for even the assembled accordian players when the bombards burst in and blew everyone away.

They play in pairs because it takes so much effort to play a line of melody that they take turns and play either call and response or call and echo pattern.

So you need to get another bombardier and then you can really make some noise.

Happy New Year by the way,
LOve Robbie
