Subject: RE: St. Chartier tune -for French music lovers
Many thanks Animaterra,
I have played at this Festival (with Rosbif) and anyone interested in French Traditional Music should go if they get a chance.It is much bigger now than when I went there,I noticed a few concertinas as well, there was only mine when I attended.The combination of concertina and Hurdy Gurdy created a bit of interest at the time. What did impress me was the wonderful instruments on sale.Fantastic Hand made Melodions,Hurdy Gurdy,s and French Pipes.The dance floors were a bit crowded then, but it did not put me off.
A memorable week.
