DOWNLOAD EBOOKWelcome to the world of international accordion music. This collection contains a sampling of ethnic folk music from Europe and the Americas and forms the foundation of a basic folk accordion repertoire. These songs are from manynations. They are crowd pleasers and they are fun to play. I have played most of these songs in the various bands I have played with over the years. These melodies have stood the test of time, so what are you waiting for? Open the book, get your accordion out and let's play some music! One word about these songs: I generally learn a song and then play it by heart-by memory as opposed to playing it by reading from a sheet of music. I believe this allows for more personal expression and interpretation which can be affected by audience response or the way I feel at the time. You'll notice that on most of the performances on the audio download available onlineI didn't play repeats. Because of the limited time available on a disc we found we couldn't fit all thetunes if we played them as written. Written by Bruce Bollerud, June 2007. Includes access to online audio.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKDVD SOLD SEPARATELY! (The DVD contains close-ups of the author as he plays slowly through each tune in the manual).This highly praised Irish Accordion Tutor, Vol 1, by All Ireland accordion Champion Damien Connolly:* Caters for reading both staff and BoxTab(tm) (a unique variation of the ABC notationsystem) notation styles. Each tune is written out both ways on facing pages. Not only will this make learning easy, but it can help musicians to understand both systems of music notation, by comparing one against the other.* Provides its readers with detailed fingering for each tune-even the grace notes! When learned and practiced, the suggested fingering patterns and techniques should give the player greater control of the accordion, and ultimately greater freedom of expression while playing.* Helps you learn in stages. Grace notes are indicated by smaller finger numbers. If a studentwishes to "put off" learning the grace notes, he or she can concentrate on the main notes, and come back to the grace notes at a later stage.* Gives clear illustrations of how to play musical ornaments such as grace notes, tripletsand rolls along with alternate ways of playing these same ornaments. For example,Damien introduces four types of triplet, four types of rolls in both the manual and video.* Uses color to teach how to play basses. Each bass and chord pair is indicated by a specificcolor symbol overlayed on the BoxTab of selected tunes. Many accordion students have a dread of basses. However, using this clear-cut system, the student will easily grasp how they are used.Perhaps the most innovative feature of The Irish Accordion Tutor is that it indicates the bellows direction by color coding. At a glance, the student can tell whether a certain note is produced by pushing or pulling. This will greatly speed up the learning process for most students.The Irish Accordion Tutor caters for all levels of accordion students. While no single fingeringsystem can claim definitive status over another, this book provides one excellent techniquefrom which the student may develop his or her own style.
