vivdunstan: Photo of my 72 bass accordion (accordion)
I have 6 big books of French musette accordion tunes, each with 110 tunes in it, so 660 total. It’s a treasure trove, but cumbersome to dig out specific tunes frequently, and especially a mix from multiple books. So yesterday I copied my favourites, the tunes I am currently keen to learn properly, and those that look intriguing. Just had a run through with my copies - which will be going into a proper dedicated music binder later today. Great fun, including my favourite “Paris Mon Accordeon” by Jo Privat, which I hadn’t dug out for years. I’m very soon getting my new chromatic button accordion from France, a totally different keyboard style. I hope that one day I will be able to play musette tunes on there too. Anyway much fun for now! I also practiced my arrangement of Disney’s Speechless from live action Aladdin.
