Hi! I'm Ralph from Orlando Florida. I'm a long time enthusist of tradtional music including the music of the British Isles, the Canadian maritime Islands, Brittany. Heck, there's really not much tradional music of European origin that I don't like. I used to think that I wanted to be a classical guitar major (back in the 70's) but really could not cut the academic mustard. Music as a hobby is much more enjoyable for me.
Besides guitar, I play mandolin, penny whistle, a little flute, piano, jaws harp, harmonica, thighs, cheeks etc. I would play the fiddle, but I don't think I have the patience to play the way I would like.
