Interview with Sylvain Piron, Alsatian Accordionist
I've posted the first part of an interview with Sylvain on my blog, as well as links to free downloads of four of his recordings (with his blessing). Sylvain Piron was an early inspiration and teacher for me. He's been playing French accordéon since the late 70s, and is central to the trad music and...

Re: introductions of participating box players
Hello, just discovered this forum because someone linked to my tradFrench music blog. I play G/C accordions, and I'm pretty focused on that Auvergne/Massif Central repertoire. I do play whistle, and at one time played whistle a lot, and played Irish music a lot. I was on the old Irtrad mailing list,...

Other suggestions for CDs: Patrick Bouffard, a great hurdy gurdy player who always has a great piper with him, a number of his are available from Amazon or iTunes or other sources. La Chavan...

But even through Amazon you can get stuff like Rage de Dance . http://accordeonaire.blogspot.com/2011/02/frederic-paris-and-la-chavannee.html Also, Patrick Bouffard is a ...
