Vivienne Dunstan<p>Back to typing up newspaper references to the German accordionist and tuner I found travelling around mid/late 19th century Scotland. Have now typed up 240/276 newspaper references to him. Here is one just typed, from Selkirk in 1859. I will be writing this all up as an academic journal paper soon. <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/accordion" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>accordion</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/squeezebox" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>squeezebox</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/music" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>music</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/Scotland" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Scotland</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/Selkirk" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Selkirk</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/newspapers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>newspapers</span></a></p>

Vivienne Dunstan<p>And here's a snippet of me practicing Thank You For The Music by ABBA on my accordion today. It's a real work out, and by the end of my short practice I was struggling to control my brain, never mind the fingers to play it just now! Thanks neuro illness! But overall happy. It's a lovely arrangement. <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/Music" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Music</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/ABBA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ABBA</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/Accordion" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Accordion</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/Squeezebox" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Squeezebox</span></a></p>
Vivienne Dunstan<p>Delighted to manage some oh too rare accordion practice. Today trying new to me (at least to play) Calum's Road by Donald Shaw of Capercaillie (in video below).
