Accordion class at the Children's Palace in Pyongyang. 2008-09-24. My travelogue: http://vienna-pyongyang.blogspot.com/ (by train from Austria to North Korea)
@DSP1899 As an American I go every year. You can go. Of course I do not recommend the accordion class if you want to preserve your hearing. I just returned 3 weeks ago. I skipped the accordions and went to the computer classes.
They are not accordion classes, not piano classes and not guitar classes! They are performances especially for tourists, and the kids are selected and practiced way beforehand!
Fantastic! Great!. Marvellous! By the way of music I want to show you what musicians of Brazil and Argentina are doing in folklore music with a accordion. If you want, please see these 3 videos, really interesting:
- Voninho e Marcelo
- Tio Mederico- Dvd Os Serranos 40 anos- Sempre Gaúchos
- CHANGO SPASIUK EN FORMOSA KILOMETRO 11 -10/10/2009 (4)
They allow Americans?

I would love to see this live, but as an American I cannot, this is a great clip!

How many tourists were there? When I went (August 2010), there were at least 20 of us and not much room to stand.
