Is anyone else here playing tunes on a Baritone English Concertina?

Here are 3 YouTubes of Irish & Scottish tunes on my own Aeola Baritone.

2 Scottish Tunes.

3 Polkas.

2 Irish Polkas.

Cheers
Dick

Very nicely played Dick! - you obviously get along quite well with your baritone! I would not say I play any tunes but here I just wanted to illustrate the articulation by bellows reversals and accent on the pull stroke which are some of my hobby-horses :-) The baritone however turned out not being ideal for that purpose ( just being in a fairly right pitch imitating the cello) and a treble had probably been more instructive
