vivdunstan: Photo of my 72 bass accordion (accordion)
It's a bit hot, but chuffed to manage some accordion practice. Still learning Money, Money, Money by ABBA (second practice trying it). Played on my big Italian/Clinkscales 1981 piano accordion made by Paolo Soprani, the oldest accordion company in the world. Some fluffs, but honestly I'm really pleased with that. And again my right hand control kept up throughout the practice, managing lots of three-note harmonies. My right hand control even on the piano accordion has been much better since I started learning my new French chromatic button accordion in June, and doing lots of intensive new hand exercises on that. Which is helping me recover long-term lost hand control from brain damage from my neuro illness.

Here is a link to the audio. And it was played on this box:

Trying to pick my movie viewing choice for this weekend, if I stay awake for long enough. And despite the calls of D&D and new Indy etc. I think this might win. As I always say about it, the best Hitchcock film that Hitchcock didn't make. And it has my all-time favourite piece of movie music in it, which I recently arranged to play on my accordion. It is also appealingly under 2 hours long!
