"Thats' good, the more the merrier, as they say. I thought that the Lansing arrangement was interesting with the 'English notation' designation and also the trio being arranged in different octaves. It's a catchy tune and easy to…"

"Here is Howard Whitney's Mosquito's Parade, this version arranged by Lansing, was published by Witmark in 'English Notation' in 1901. Gordon Dando used to play this one, it's a catchy tune which is a close cousin to…"
"It's a good tune and Hunter makes it bounce along in his usual effervescent manner, it's quite playable on the banjo from the piano score. Whtiney''s 'Mosquito's Parade' is also worth playing, this one appeared in…"
"Thank you for for untangling this forward looking and quite challenging piece for us. I did run through it but my poor old eyes had difficulty with the ledger lines and changes of tempo so I didn't make much sense of it. I can see how it might…"

"Rainy afternoon...I'm keying this piece into Muscore 4.
It's Balmy (Britspeak: Barmy). It shifts from a 3/4 introduction to 2/4 A & B part, then a 6/8 C part in Cm. Back to the 2/4 A then the Trio's in 4/4 (and in F) then back to…"

There are very few Edith Feildings in the British BMD database and possibly only one in the likely timeframe. There is some additional information on…"

"Hi Joel, Grimshaw recommended a metal 1st string because the gut 1st strings at the time were so thin that they often broke and were just a nuisance. Joe Morley also recommended and used a metal 1st string, this information came as a surprise to me…"
