I would like to hear some coments about what you think of Mouth Music, and if you know something or not.

If you answer, I may be able to send some more material. I t´s just a wonderful thing, it´s culture living by itself.

Search the forum, Lilter, we've talked on this before. I am assuming you're referring to Scottish Puirt-a-Beul.

No, Puirt-a-Beul is just one of hundred roots that Mouth Music has.

But even though, how can I refresh the discussion of some topic?

No, Puirt-a-Beul is one of many mouth music traditions. There is no logical connection between them. Just as flute and bagpipe traditions exist all (?) over the world.

It's misleading to simply lump a whole mass of different cultures together, IMO. It's even further wide of the mark to claim "it's a culture living by itself".

If you want to discuss some aspect of mouth music then post something more specific . . Some of the clever souls round here are then bound to add links to past discussions of interest. (Otherwise you can go and investigate the Mudcat search facilities, but that can be a bit "heavy" at first!)

Welcome, anyway!

And I think that to use the full search facilities here, which are quite impressive, you'd need to register (free and totally confidential) as a member. Or maybe I'm wrong on that. (It'd all be in the FAQ anyway.)

No, I'm sure you can use the search facilities without having to be a member. Thanks to MAx!
