"La complainte de la Butte" chanson d'esprit musette de Paris

Joué par Mario Bruneau / played by Mario Bruneau http://www.mariobruneau.com
On parle ici de la Butte Montmartre à Paris bien sûr. L'accordéon peut être très poétique et nostalgique. Cette pièce me touche beaucoup par le lyrisme de sa mélodie. À mon humble avis, la France est la championne de la mélodie et l'accordéon profondément ancré dans l'esprit Français y contribue grandement. J'espère que vous aimerez mon interpretation. Mon accordéon est un Brandoni model 133 que j'ai modifié et accordé. We are talking here about Montmartre of course. The accordion can be very poetic and nostalgic. This tune really touches me with the lyricism of its melody. In my opinion, France is world champion of the melody and the accordion being well associated with France's spirit is one of its most important contribution. I hope you'll enjoy my version. I play on a Brandoni accordion that I have modified and tuned.

Hello Mario, Greetings from Canada. I absolutely love this piece of music and the way you play it. Is it possible for you to share this arrangement with me. It is very difficult to find music for the accordion here in Canada. thank you.  Henry

Thanks for the comment.

Just take it by ear. I don't made any special arrangement on this, just choosing the right registers...

Hi all,

Thanks for your nice comments.

My accordion is a Brandoni Model #133 Super Musette that I have modified physically and tuned  to a smooth and modern French musette sound. For the violin register, the center clarinet is at A=440Hz and the upper clarinet is at A=441.5Hz which will produce a nice and slow 1.5beats/sec.

@henrytrickey Thanks! I will learn it by ear from your arrangment on You Tube. Have a great life! Henry
