[torskinge]

Thank you very much! This is really good. You do it in a very nice way. I learned to play harmonies in about 5 minutes with this. Thanks!!

why not put a full black cover over the screen, then we would not see a thing.

[XxCheekyPaddyxX]

Thanks, this helped a lot! Now I feel ready to try my dad's old accordion out =)

[BehindTheSea29]

Thanks, makes me feel better about playing the accordion for the first time

Why is she holding a screwdriver

[Chris246t8kr]

@andymacceltic To point at it so that her fingers don't confuse anyone watching it, like if her finger was in the way. I hope that's what your asking and not why she picked a screwdriver...

[sinancans]

i would like to ask a question if treble clef side also consists of buttons,not keys it is same logic with bass buttons?

[OmriLahavComposer]

A fifth is not the fifth whole-step away...

[drummerdudex017]

This was UNBELIEVABLY helpful. Thank you so much for posting this!

[alderdrive]

Pretty good explanation in a short time.

[OGmeams]

Helpful.

The fifth is not "five whole steps" away from the root as you said here....it's "the fifth step of the major scale that starts on the root." Five whole steps up from C would be A#. (C-D=1, D-E=2, E-F#=3, F#-G#=4, G#-A#=5).

Clear. Straight to the point. Simple. This video solved a question I've had for many years now.

Congratulations

[greattools]

wow! Why to people make fun of people that play the accordion?

They look hard to really be able to "play" well.

I have a new respect for anyone playing these. They are no joke.

[bibntucker]

Good video. I have an accordion that looks almost identicle to this one made by Pollina that I've had since 1964!

[jbrowsingj]

So each bass button plays a single note, or does it play a chord?

[Liynkx]

Not bad, I kinda wish you'd slow down and be a little more newb friendly though.

[danofsydney]

Great explaination, and you are the hottest Accordion player Ive ever seen :)

[pixcess1]

Your videos are down to earth, relaxed and not stuffy - I really like that. I got a kick out of your use of a screwdriver as a pointer - nothing stuffy about that. I've learned a lot about accordions in less than 10 minutes of video watching.

[jonesledzep]

although i agree with you, i don't agree with how you call her a neanderthal.. that just isn't right. And captain garry kinda sucks.. sorry

[Iamtubuler]

Your video is great very detailed and good camera work so we can actually see something.

Please make more!
