Concertina.ie by Gearóid Keane

Getting started

• Once you join a class, I will add you to it in tradroom and you will receive an email invitation to set up your account. That is the only setup you need to do.
• Sign in at gearoidkeane.tradroom.ie and you will see every class you are enrolled in.
• If your invitation has not arrived, or you cannot see a class you are expecting, get in touch and I will sort it out.

After each class

• I will upload a copy of the notes to tradroom, along with a recording of the tune.
• The notes are available in staff notation with the ABC notatation below the staff.
• Recordings are played at dance/regular speed, followed by slow speed including emphasis on ornamentation and chords etc, followed by a medium pace.

Why everything is in the one place

• You no longer need a different link and password for each class. You sign in to tradroom once with your own account, and everything you are entitled to is there together — every class, every tune, every recording.
• Because it is your own account rather than a shared password, your resources follow you from one term or one class to the next.
• They are just as easy to reach on a phone at a session as on a laptop at home.

How long your access lasts

• Access does not expire for those attending private classes.
• Access for those attending summer schools is available for 6 months after the final day of the summer school.

If you are having trouble

I hope that this process is not only easy to use but also of benefit to those who attend my classes. If you are having difficulties accessing your notes/recordings, please use the contact button at the top of the page to send an email to me.
