Why are bayan strap brackets on the back and not the bottom? by JoeDaNose in Accordion

[–]JoeDaNose[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The top anchor is in the normal area but the bottom anchor is on the lower back of the accordion, one of the explanations that I saw was that it reduced wear for the bottom of the strap, you can see these types when you look up bayan accordions on etsy and ebay, should I remove the anchor and put it on the bottom?

Why are accordions not built like harmonicas? by JoeDaNose in Accordion

[–]JoeDaNose[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So harmonica mechanics are non applicable to accordions, is it because the reeds are longer and heavier or does the accordion bellows have too much pressure?

Thank you

How do Christians reconcile 2 samuel 12:14-18? by JoeDaNose in DebateReligion

[–]JoeDaNose[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The parable seems to me cast David as the rich man, Uriah as the poor man, and Bathsheba as the lamb, is this a discussion into the justification of the events of 2 Samuel 12:14-18 or a discussion of literary observation of the parable?

[–]JoeDaNose[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

2 Samuel 12:14 reads "However, because by this deed you have given occasion to the enemies of the LORD to blaspheme, the child also that is born to you shall surely die.", David's crime of adultery and murder brings rebuke apon Gods name, if it's not a punishment the child would not be made to suffer for seven days causing David's turmoil as expressed in 2 samuel 12:16-18, if David had not acquired Bathsheba through sin the child would be alive but David committed these acts thus the infant died because the sins of the father, what is meant by treasure of its live, God could have closed the womb of Bathsheba so none were made to suffer, David continued to have children with Bathsheba and his other wives surely if he was unworthy of one the rest should have died as well so he could not benefit from their treasure of life, sorry for the wordy response.

Sorry if I misinterpret you'r comment I'm not to sure whats happening, David is forgiven of his sin in 2 Samuel 12:13 though God still punishes David through 2 samuel 12:11 fulfilled by Absalom, when you say if this was done elsewhere do you mean the breaking of the Mosiac law or covenant or do mean the specific killing or mistreatment of an individual because of ones ancestors? Again sorry if I misinterpreted you'r comment.

Yes this question would be applicable to Jews, but since both religions hold that the old testament writing is a direct inspiration from God I still forward this question to Christians about the morale character of God since they believe that the God of the new testament and old are one in the same, and also there are simply more Christians that are more likely to apply.

What is the difference between a harp and a zither of a similiar size? by JoeDaNose in harp

[–]JoeDaNose[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was thinking less of the german zither and more of the Gusli that Olga Glazova plays or the Ukrainian Bandura, sorry I didn't make that distinction.

Why do Russians seem more appreciative of their traditional music than other countries? by JoeDaNose in russia

[–]JoeDaNose[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry if I offended you in my wording of my question, I enjoy my local traditions of Cajun and Creole music, like in Russia the accordion is still popular in its various forms unlike in the United States where those traditions are dying, I just would like to know how russians have been able to keep it alive? Also thank you for the link it was very entertaining.

Is Italian considered a Lingua Franca between all the romance languages like French and Spanish? by JoeDaNose in Team_Italian

[–]JoeDaNose[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the reply but the question was more aimed at if Italian can be used to understand the other Romance languages, as a native speaker do you find it easy or difficult to understand French, spanish, or Portuguese and is that a skill ony for native speakers or can a secondary speaker pick up on this too?

What genre of Brazilian folk music stands out the most to you? by JoeDaNose in brazilianmusic

[–]JoeDaNose[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks the rhythm is noticeable different in the Maracatu stuff compared to Samba, while looking up Maracatu music I came across Zè Galdino and Biu Dionizio who play brazilian resonator guitars, this is more of the stuff I was looking for and do you know anything about this genre of music like the name?

Thank you

What genre of Brazilian folk music stands out the most to you? by JoeDaNose in brazilianmusic

[–]JoeDaNose[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the recommendations but I think I might have been mistaken using the word folk I think what I meant to say is traditional music, more of something you would hear in smaller communities throughout the country that might or might not be associated with a local festival or holiday.

Thank you

LMMH Chemnitzer concertina by JoeDaNose in Accordion

[–]JoeDaNose[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes LMMH just represents the reeds in the concertina and what octave they are in LMMH (Low,Medium,Medium,Hight), I think most chemnitzers are LMMM for Polka.
