So what’s on your wish list? CD(s)? Tune books? New gadgets? ![]()
On the top of my Christmas list is the new cd from Angelina Carberry and Martin Quinn. Then, on the day after Christmas, I wake up playing banjo like Angelina Carberry. Thats a tall one for Santa. I better go practice now. lol
A new brain from Curry’s …
The skill to play my whistles well in session. If I get to be particularly greedy, ditto for flute.
In things that money could buy? Burke Al-Pro whistles in D & Bb, or an Overton Low D, or a M&E R&R model flute.
Time and talent to take up the fiddle.
Failing that, a really BIG-ass piano accordion tuned so wet you need to play it with a mop. Oh, and reverb. Reverb is good. ![]()
Keep on fiddling Nano. ![]()
Why do I play so many instruments? Because I’m sure that the two instruments I’d perhaps most love to learn, Uilleann pipes and fiddle, would require full-time dedication, and I’m not about to throw away half a lifetime’s effort learning all the others.
So Santa, please give me a decent flute embouchure … and throw in a keyed Copley, Grinter or Olwell. Oh and a good B/C box in swing tuning would be nice too.
Hmmm.. I would love a flute for Yule.
And perhaps a few hours of quietude where I could be completely undisturbed by human beings. Yes, it’s a mother’s dream. ![]()

An Eb/D# key sure would be nice on my Seery…as would a G#, Bb and Fnat…so would the money to pay for them.
On the more realistic side, I’m hoping for a CD of Ozark fiddle music put out by the Missouri Department of Conservation. I think it would be fun to check out some local tunage derived from the Irish/Scottish background of so many of the settlers in the area.
