I'm hoping to find other D/G melodeon players within my area (Newhaven, East sussex). I've just moved to this area, and would really like to meet up with others occasionally, as I spend much of my time playing and practising at home, which I don't think is always the best way to learn, maybe. I've got a D/G castagnari 'Studio', and have learned to play some of the 'tunes for the month' - namely Schottishe a Bethanie, Sansonette, Midnight on the water - plus various morris tunes. I'd probably say I was an 'intermediate' player - in other words, constantly trying to improve! If there's anyone out there who would like to get together to play some tunes - not too far from my area, I'd love to hear from you.
Gwen.
