hi, well I'm back! as Bernd told me, I'm posting some of what I do, for anyone who can be interested.

I'm into breton music; britanny - my father's country- is a region of france with a very distinctive culture, with a celtic language pretty similar to welsh. lots of things happening there in music. I played snare drum several years in a breton "bagad" in my town some time ago

I'm also into french folk and by extension, european.

also, balkanic and even oriental music, but that will be for another time maybe.

so here's what I do; some of it is whith electronic accompaniment, so not so traditional, is it? well ...

thanks for your comments if you have any, cheers!

We all play what suits us, our own tastes, & that's good as well.

Thanks for sharing. What kind of harmonica is used in the last video?

I like the electric accompaniment you gave to the two Polskor, it was maybe a tad more subtle then the one for the Bal du Rhuys.

And I enjoyed the metronome, too, happily waving to the bouré & the polka.

(Harmonica playing was flawless, so nothing to comment about here.

)

thanks sebastian, I don’t try much subtlety as far as the accompaniments are concerned, I want to record quickly otherwise I never manage to finish anything. I certainly wouldn’t call my playing flawless but I think it’s better than it used to be and well that’s just what I manage to put out on video. cheers!
