More accordion playing

[vivdunstan]

Delighted to manage an hour's play on my piano accordion. Very light headed neurologically, and challenged by bellows control! But delighted got a play. Mainly my own arrangements e.g. Despacito, Aladdin's Speechless, and Bergerac theme. And here, Bateau Mouche by Henry Mancini, from movie Charade.

There's always a limit to how long I can play for. I end up getting too light headed, and brain fogged very quickly, and can no longer control my fingers or arms, or read the music properly. But very happy with today's hour's play! Took me a while to "wake up" enough to not totally stuff it up. But had lots of fun.

Love the recording! Reminds me of the music you always hear in films set in Paris!

It's used in the thriller/romance film Charade when Audrey Hepburn and Cary Grant's characters are going down the Seine in a Bateau Mouche. Totally appropriate :) We love that film.
