DeVotchka - Charlotte Mittnacht (The Fabulous Destiny of...) - Accordion Cover

An accordion cover of DeVotchka's Charlotte Mittnacht (The Fabulous Destiny of...), as requested by user gibsonjn.

I just learned this song half an hour ago, so excuse some of the improvised notes. There's supposed to be a solo at the 1m39s mark. Instead, I just play some background chords using a triad technique. I cover this technique in an earlier video. You can simply play a solo with the accordion, or repeat the verse.

Tutorial to follow shortly.

Keep up the good work =)

btw. what song did you practice too? from cirque du soleil, i can´t understand it, but i hope its jeux d´enfants =)

greetings

@FuerstnD The Cirque song is called "Vai Vedrai", from Allegro. It's beautiful and haunting, and it's a song in a Major key, rather than the minor waltzes I usually post.

vai vedrai looks like a kick to play and to sing, even for a bass :P

I hope you show us that soon :)

Grand! Merveilleux, Beau. Bravo! À propos de cet instrument de musique, l'accordéon, votre accordéon est vraiment merveilleux, stupenda. Permettez-moi, s'il vous plaît, de vous montrer que les Brésiliens et les Argentins font avec cet instrument unique et merveilleux. Si vous voulez voir, cherchez s'il vous plaît ces vidéos:
