"Let It Be" Classic Beatles tune played on the Roland FR-7x Virtual Accordion by Richard Noel

"Let It Be" is one of the all-time favorite Beatles tune. As with all of my youtube videos, I'm playing this using only the inboard voices of the Roland FR-7x virtual accordion. For the basses I begin with octave piano for the intro, then use the rubber bass with acoustic guitar chord for the rest of the song. Percussion effects are also added to the bass and chord throughout.
The treble begins with a piano/voice blend, then switches to a musette accordion solo, then a guitar/musette blend, and for the last time through I again use the piano/voice blend.

If you are interested in purchasing a collection of 20 sets created for the Roland 7x, please email me. The sets include a variety of styles including Italian, German, French, Country, Rock, Latin, Big Band, Orchestral, Jazz, and several all-purpose sets--with and without rhythms. The sets have been painstakingly developed over a period of many months, and have been gig-tested as well. Programming instruction is also available in my free youtube videos.

Thanks Mike. This is not the sort of music I usually play. I struggled with the selection of voices, and never was satisfied. I very much like the piano with chorus, but would change the piano/musette if I do it again.
