any advice to someone wanting to learn? How do you do it? Thanks

[goinghomesomeday1]

Hello @roller1290,

Here is a link to accordion playing with a complete course which is free. I am using it at the moment learning to play, I find it great. Enjoy, and if you can let me know how you get on.

I have just tried to post the link but youtube blocked it.

Do a Google search on Duane Schnur accordion and you will find his retirment page.  Good luck.

Regards

@edsternet Good morning Eddie - its 06:30 here and a very wet day. I'm glad you liked the link to Duane's site. I have done very little practice these past months due to work pressure. Boy, your accordion playing is real nice. well done.

[monkeyman670]

[mogenim]

Beautiful playing!

[macsalvi]

The first beautiful song of the setting is 'Eilidh' also sung by Donald Macrae. Nice playing... beautiful Scottish Snap.

[Rhawneld57]

so Cool. I guess the high notes are high and the low notes are low > LOL makes sense.

[Rhawneld57]

WOW do they make such a thing as a left handed accordion. I only ever played the right hand accordion. Maybe this is mirror immage on the camera. If so it was an eyeopener. Nice playing too very energetic.

I give you a 5 Star rating.

[16Piano16]

Brilliant work here, love this type of music, and to answer Rhawneld57.. i play left handed strange i know but its how i taught myself! ;)

[celticsqueeze]

sorry about all the confusion! I had the setup on the webcam to "mirror horizontal" ;-) Had a lot of you going though .. I wish I was that talented to play right way up and hendrix style ;-) !!!!

[biodude94]

It's gotta be in a mirror. I think the player is left-handed, and wears his watch on the right arm, but can't quite see the watch face clearly enough to be certain. All his other videos are played in the normal setup, and I can't begin to think how difficult it would be to reassign the tasks of the left and right hands on a "loaner" accordion!

[eastmoaness]

do we have a video done in a mirror . i too am baffled as the keys are still running the right way but its his left hand on the treble end . can you put us poor right handed players out of our misery mark and tell us how its done....cracking player by the way .

[tommietucker]

exellent fingering,very nice.

[AndyK48]

gr8 playin. this accordion has confused me lol. is it a left handed piano accordion?

[gerry1976]

Is it the left hand, or is it me looking upside down?

[graham1281]

Great medley Mark. Looking forward to many more clips from you

[happyflucker]

excellent playing and i liked the selction off tunes.
