  • The trully knowledgable can make the complex seem simple. THANK YOU SO MUCH / Great lesson. In 2 minutes I learned more than hours of futzing around on my own.

  • This was very helpful! Thanks for not obfuscating the trappings of this great instrument :-)

  • @pumg woswwww you can write english better than most people i know

  • Great lesson, short but very helpfull

  • how about the mexican version accordion

  • Probably accordionists. They are all perfect! Sometimes people forget what it is like to be a beginner and can't simplify enough for them to understand. I think this video did a fine job. She is not technically that good but it is a good lesson none the less.

    What ever it takes to get people to give it a try is the most important thing to me!

  • I don't know why there are so many dislikes on this video. It has been (by far) the most helpful and most simple way of learning the basics of what to do with each hand. I've found her videos to be far more instructive than the others.
