Hi all,
I've written few articles about irish harmonica on my blog. It's about tunes, ornamentations, rhythm...
I'm sorry it's in french (maybe i'll traduce my blog later). If you understand french it's here : Irish harmonica

Thanks for the link, Nico. But please don't "traduce" your blog. Maybe you shouldn't attempt to translate it either: traduce veut dire calomnier ou diffamer.Nicoharp wrote:I'm sorry it's in french (maybe i'll traduce my blog later). Nicolas

C'est moi qui te remercie: traduire / traduce must be one of the most powerful examples of the dangers of "les faux amis" and I'll remember it for future reference!
PS I might have said: don't traduce your blog - others will be happy to do that for you

Re: Irish harmonica : articles
I've written over a dozen articles on this subject in Harmonica World, the magazine of the National Harmonica League in the UK. http://harmonica.co.uk I've contributed a few items on the Music Download link on the site. I'm hoping to reinstate my defunct website dedicated to the topic soon, better than before I hope!
"Last night, among his fellow roughs,
He jested, quaff'd and swore."
They cut me down and I leapt up high
I am the life that'll never, never die.
I'll live in you if you'll live in me -
I am the lord of the dance, said he!
