International Concertina Association Don't squeeze alone – squeeze together!
Recordings donated to the ICA other than from Peter Trimming or Tim Pearson.
To my great surprise, a few weeks ago I got an e-mail from the composer Barry Taylor, who lives in British Columbia, Canada. He informed me that he has a new choral arrangement for the tune and he is happy to share this melody and arrangement with us, and so I transformed it to be read and played by a concertina band as a slow air.
The tune is contributed by Canadian member Robin Harrison as part of his Toronto session tunes book.
“The tune was written by me, and the arrangement was by both my daughter, Sophy, and I. So pleased you want to use it. The Well-Dressed Band (a ceilidh band based in the Peak District) have just recorded it for a demo CD.” – Dave Ball
The title translates to: ‘grandmother’s music box’, so you might want to play it a little slower than I had my computer record it…
