Two great informative books I read this year have something in common. What do you think it is? I'll share later today. This is really amazing!! @jeanteillet Jean, I know you'll find this interesting. Thanks @AccordionBruce @RogersShelagh Cheers~Mike (I'll post later 2 day)
A great 30+page chapter by @AccordionBruce on our Canadian North and its history of the accordion and a section on the Metis and that Louis Riel owned an accordion!??? I didn't know that connection. @jeanteillet
And of course a good many pages on our Newfoundland &aboriginal connections. From Harry Hibbs to Minnie White to "chin music" or "gob music" (in Quebec 'turlutage') in communities with no instruments, Fascinating history that took over the fiddles of our Irish/Scottish ancestors
And to finish this thread....enjoy!!! ( Just dd this this morning April 4th 2020 ) @AccordionBruce @jeanteillet @RogersShelagh
