William Kimber is widely remembered for his essential role in the revival of English Morris dance in the early twentieth century. He was also an iconic English musician who played for late 19th century village social dances as well as for Morris. His crisp and buoyant playing of the Anglo concertina has inspired generations of traditional musicians.
The Anglo Concertina Music of William Kimber examines both his personal history and the history of the village of Headington Quarry where he developed as a bricklayer, family man, Morris dancer, and musician. It contains an analysis of and tutorial for his unique playing style, as well as complete transcriptions of all his recorded tunes. His accompaniment techniques on the two-row Anglo concertina are straightforward and intuitive, and offer much to those who wish to play dance music in a traditional manner.Care
