How can you learn accordion by yourself?
DSC00712

Im exasperating to find out how to play accordion by myself. What website can I go to get the notes for the accordions like the tones and all that. And "adornos".


I don't believe it's the kind of thing you can learn online, no matter how many sites there are. But also, it's hard to find a good teacher. So, look for a instructor you connect with. Karina (below) is a good start.

Good luck.

The Musician

I've been on one's deathbed to play the accordion but I want to play one that I have made myself. I am bracing myself for your flood of knowledge.
dont tell me it's too complicated. I won't take it.

This ain't your granddad's accordion

Jennifer Feinberg

Chillwack Advance

Yes, Duncan’s most lofty music promoter promises, the accordion can be sexy.

“And Marie- Josée can prove it,” Longevity John Falkner pledges.

Marie-Josée Houle has been trekking across Canada and Europe in the last combine of years, performing solo dates and creating a “sultry stew” of sound with her accordion.

Now the buoyant folk artist is making a stop Friday while on a West Coast mini-tour.

Her music is a precious nod to her heritage, with stirring and evocative songs in both English and French.

“I was born in Quebec and I grew up in Edmonton. So French is very high-ranking to me, it’s a francophone and Quebecois identity. My music is a way of celebrating my dual cultural roots without getting into the politics of it.”

Houle was classically trained on the accordion, and has been playing since the age of 5. Her parents struggled financially, but they still believed music lessons were the emotional attachment to do, so they bought her a used accordion.
