Lakeland Waltzes






These waltzes were written by Chris Dewhurst, a very accomplished accordionist and church organist from Lichfield, Staffordshire in UK. I met him many years ago when he was fronting his Pick 'n Mix Big Band in a wonderful folk concert in Lichfield. He gave me these pieces and this really is the first time I have played them. Please excuse the very messy coupler change at the end of the 3rd piece. Also my friend was having a bit of fun with the titles, so that was beyond my control. Chris wrote these pieces ond day when he was camping near lake Windermere in the Lake District. The accordion I am playing is an Allodi/Fantini. Emilio Allodi and his father have a long history in accordion making, repair and sales and specialise in Fantini models. This one was adjusted for me when I bought it as part exchange for my lovely Giulietti which was showing it's age. On this Fantini, they adjusted the musette from strong to mild and placed the couplers to my choosing. It is a 96 bass double casotto, more or less straight tuned and I rarely play it, so am considering selling it.
