Looking for Michael Patton's book of Manx music

[Mark Levesque]

Would anyone have a copy of Michael Patton's book of Manx music to sell, or know how to contact Michael?

Thank you,

I'm not sure how effective this would be, but it appears he has a listing on LinkedIn

Thank you j-hill.
I tried that, but I need to upgrade my Linked-In account to send an email.

I've not heard of that book but if you havent heard of them the Kiaull Yn Theay books are worth a look for Manx tunes, think there's maybe four of them. Hope that helps.

I had a copy but think I might have given it to a friend in Australia a year or so ago... I'll check. I know Mike and used to play in sessions with him although I now live at the other end of the UK, and can try and track him down if you like.

Mark, I don't know of the Patton book, but their are 40 downloadable Manx tunes here:http://www.manxheritagemusic.org/home.aspx

Also, there is a nice collection of Manx music arranged for harp by Charles Guard. It is available from various harp stores, such as Melody's Traditional Music and Harp Shoppe: http://www.folkharp.com/product/manx-music

Pardon my ignorance but what is Manx music?

Music from the Isle of Man.

I bought my lovely Gibson A5G from Michael, and have his email address somewhere.

PM me if you would like the address.

Music from the Isle of Man.

All the tunes have codas, but they're very short.

All the tunes have codas, but they're very short.

Unlike Cheshire tunes, which just slowly fade away ....
