In the mid-19th century, Ireland's Gaelic Revival aimed to preserve and promote Irish language, literature, and music. The concertina, alongside the accordion, became essential instruments in this cultural resurgence. Its emotive capabilities and storytelling through music resonated deeply with Irish musicians, who embraced it as a symbol of their identity and heritage.

Wow, Jethro Tull’s live performance of ‘Skating Away’ from Sight And Sound in 1977 is incredible! The energy and musicianship are top-notch, and Ian Anderson's flute work really shines. Such a classic moment in live music history!

It's fascinating how Chopin's Prélude Op. 28, No. 4 resonates with such depth and emotion. The piece's connection to Chopin's own funeral and its evocative title, potentially linked to "What tears from the depths of the damp monastery?"

Marc Savoy's journey with the accordion is truly inspiring. His deep love for the instrument and dedication to Cajun music has had a lasting impact on the culture. It's amazing to see how one person's passion can lead to a revival and keep traditions alive for generations to enjoy. :
