What a fantastic interpretation of Monti's Czardas!

[bobg357]

SUPER!!! do you have sheets maybe? tnx

[klemens3333]

Bravo! Sehr sauber gespielt! Fast so gut wie Paliza's Stil... :)

[Tomas917]

Richard,

You are absolutely amazing. I love the way you combine expression with flawless technique. I've listened to this, Malageuena and Radetzky March many times, and I am floored every time. I've let others who are hearing a digital accordion for the first time, and they are equally moved...Bravo. It just seems that every piece you play, that that's the way it was meant to be played.

Was there a big transition from acoustic to digital for you...in other words, easy to adapt?

Tom

[bakersfieldaccordion]

Tom,

Thanks for the generous compliment. As far as transitioning to the digital from the acoustic, I found it quite easy, and knew right away that I was unlikely to return to the acoustic.

Está de maravilla! :D

[NikkiGeser]

EXCELSO. EN MI PAÍS (MÉXICO) HAY UN INSTRUMENTO PARECIDO AL OBJETO MÁGICO QUE TOCA EL TIPO DEL VIDEO. SE LE LLAMA ACORDEÓN NORTEÑO Y ÚLTIMAMENTE SE USA PARA DARLE SATISFACCIÓN A UN MONTÓN DE INDIOS PENDEJOS AMANTES DE LA COCAÍNA Y LOS DÓLARES, EN MELODÍAS ESTÚPIDAS LLAMADAS "CORRIDOS". USTEDES, EUROPA DEL NORTE, POR FAVOR NO VOMITEN ANTE ESTAS DEGRADACIONES.

Wow Richard, What a fantastic job you did on Czardas. There are many postings of this piece on YT but this ranks right up near the top. Even those by former Coupe Mondial winners are not any better. Keep up the great work. SN

[bakersfieldaccordion]

I love the piece, but seldom get a chance to play it. The 7x adds a little extra flavor to the song, IMHO. Thanks for the comments.

Richard

[accordiona]

It's wonderful, Richard! Truly, you have found full expression with this Roland. Superb playing!

Melodía, armonía, ritmo, tempo ... todo perfecto, enhorabuena.

[sia1807]

Richard, this is fantastic. Great instrumentation, perfect musicality and superb technique. It is definitely one of the best interpretation of this piece. I totally agree with Leon: professional video in every aspect. I noticed that you have put a bit more reverb and I think it suits perfect to the Czardas.

Silvia

[bakersfieldaccordion]

Thanks Silvia. As usual, you pick up on all of the nuances. I did use a bit more reverb, especially after seeing how good it sounded on your sets. I also used the internal USB for recording this time, which seems to pick up more of the reverb.

cudowne! greetings from Poland!

[pacomassanes2]

Verry beautiful*****

Merry Christmas

[AccordionLadyMi]

Beautiful performance. I enjoyed this very much. Fran

[Rhawneld57]

Well Staged and Well perfromed Bob. Great Video all round.

Ron! Merry Christmas.!

[myaccordionhistory]

This is perhaps the best performance of Czardas Monti that I have seen played on the accordion. Professionally orchestrated, professionally played, professionally recorded. Beautiful tonal quality and dynamic range. It's hard to believe that all this can be done on a single instrument.

Leon

[bakersfieldaccordion]

Geez, Leon! People will think you're my brother or something! But indeed I appreciate your unfailing support of my efforts with the Roland V-accordion, including numerous suggestions about the recording process.

[myaccordionhistory]

@bakersfieldaccordion - I wish you were my brother. I know what you mean, but be objective. How many people on YouTube play over such an extended dynamic range, besides Silvia. How many record well enough that we hear the true sonic quality of their fine instrument, besides Silvia. How many play an entire competitive piece without a single detectable error, besides Silvia. I haven't heard Silvia play Czardas Monti yet. I rest my case. Thanks for making our Christmas merrier.

Leon

[sia1807]

@myaccordionhistory Leon, are you my brother as well? Love your comment ... Silvia ;-)

[myaccordionhistory]

@sia1807 - What a wonderful family we would all make. I would be the audio technician, and you and Richard would be the musicians. What a powerful team!

Leon

[JimRobbinsAccordion]

Bravo! I love the span of accordion sounds we can get form this great instrument. I have posted my first video on YouTube (JimRobbinsAccordion is my channel). I had a wonderful opportunity in the last two weeks to play at 4 Seasons and at our church - really loved working with our jazz group at Missio Dei and playing some Vince Guaraldi Christmas/Peanuts music.

[bakersfieldaccordion]

Thanks, Jim. Just checked out your first youtube--great job in producing a unique version of the tune that displays your talents and that of the Roland.
