SqueezEast & Kettle Bridge Concertinas Playing Together
26th September 2026
Slideshow accompanied by a selection of the tunes we played during the day
We had another great day playing together with our friends from Kettle Bridge Concertinas,
who are based in Kent. Marks Tey Parish Hall, near Colchester, is a convenient mid
point between the two groups, so was again our chosen venue. We had a variety of pieces
chosen from the repertoire of each group. Each one beautifully arranged for concertina band.
There were 22 players at the event, which was lead by Paul from SqueezEast.
We look forward to playing together again soon.
Turn on (and off) each player in turn to hear some of the tunes we played together.
