Finally found someone on here to get me up to speed on the basics! Thank you so much! I inherited a 12 bass Hohner Student II that was my grandmother's, and I am determined to make it sing again!

@ericanova8 4 года назад

Me too!

i’ve got the same one! thought quarantine would be an ideal time to start

@mikefriedman593 3 года назад

I just got a used 12 bass too and am attempting to play after not picking up an accordion for 50 years.

@izzyh.3581 3 года назад

That's great! I inherited two of my grandfather's accordions as well. One with piano keys and one with all buttons.

@terrancehugo6258 3 года назад

I guess I am kinda off topic but does anyone know of a good place to stream new series online?

@xerxesofpersia9630 4 года назад

Took me about 40 minutes, not going to lie. However, you made it easier! Thanks.

@xenlithkayo2221 3 года назад

Thank you so much for these amazing lessons! I picked up a used accordion from a music shop yesterday on a split-second decision and will be using you as my teacher!

@MrFlames01 Год назад

Looks simple but since I’m just starting to play the accordion, it’s a challenge to me to coordinate the right and left hands. I’ll keep practicing until I get it right. I think what’s key is to pay attention to where the notes fall in reference to the bass notes. Thanks for the lesson!

Hi, Tony! The advice to divide the phrases before playing and identify the point to invert the bellow movement was very useful to me. Thanks! This song looks easy but the hand shift to finish the first phrase and start the second phrase is not trivial... :-) Best regargs from Brazil

Really liked this video. Helped me to understand the principle of playing the instrument. Thank you.

Liberty Bellows Thank you so much for uploading these lessons and each lesson is taught in a very simple and understandable way. I searched so many lessons online but these accordion lesson series are the best online course I found. I am still a beginner at playing the accordion. Coordination is hard but I am sure by practising continuously and following your lesson series I can get rid of that.

Thank you very much ı have studied accordion with your video for all 20 hours in 12 days yes ı m not good at this but not bad Thank you very much liberty below İ m going on :)

@mida8261 6 лет назад

I found a somewhat beat up accordion in a box next to some trash bins when I went on a walk three weeks ago. Today I decided to put some good use to it and found this video. Damn, is it going to be a challenge learning to play key and bass combined, but I love a good brain workout. Thanks for the videos!

The first few attempts at combining bass and piano keys are quite mind-boggling, but I'm starting to slowly get it after a few minutes of practice. You're a great teacher, thanks for videos like this one!

@raztaz826 Год назад

Really helped me. Everyone else seems to have way more buttons and my 12 button accordion doesn't have any indent on C so I didn't know what button.

@nathanpowers6867 8 лет назад

Plans to do this with concertina and single row diatonic?

@brianmorris8045 Год назад

My problem is moving the bellows evenly, I was lent a 12 bass tonight. I can play most stuff in C...as I dabble in piano. Do you have a chart showing the bass notes on the bass section?. But trying to move the bellows and play the bass at the same time, will keep me busy. Any suggestions how to keep it all even?

@squigglegames8171 7 лет назад

when you press the keys is there a certain way you have to press them with each finger. like when you move your hand must you put it in a certain position. when you do a chord is that the way you have to position your hand and the fingers you need to use for each key? im new to piano

@brianmorris8045 Год назад

But so far you are making sense of this thing.

@KirbysPVS 3 года назад

I'm new to the accordion (ie just got a 48 bass yesterday and started practicing today) and was wondering what my goals should be. Should I be aiming to master a lesson and start a new one every week? Also how long should I practice each day?

@DonnieCalabrese 4 года назад

This is great. What a fantastic resource! I am a beginner player but I only have a full sized accordion--will I be able to follow along with this videos?

@felixhenson9926 4 года назад

There are loads of full sized accordian vids teaching out there! But he did mention he would be moving on to teaching accordians with more bass keys so I'd assume so!

@Astynax27432 3 года назад

Can you play waltzes on a smaller according like this? And specifically, there's a Russian song called on the Hills of Manchuria

@kaminari1028 6 лет назад

I got one for Christmas. I’ve always wanted to learn to play, but I’ve only played on a toy accordion and have no music experience. What’s messing me up is my black keys go 2 2 3 2.

@ashleyranee8394 2 года назад

one of those sets of 2 is actually a 3 it just gets cut off due to space limitations... for anyone just starting and getting stuck on this, imagine the keyboard keeps going in each direction

@martontauber8213 Год назад

Mine is 1 2 3 2 1 and 16 bass?? So confusing. Plus, no mark for where C is on the chords or the bass. I don't even remember how long i've had this thing.

@theohiodoge395 4 года назад

Why does the bass notes take up so much air in the bellow?

@katerinacharitou5685 6 лет назад

I'm planning on getting a 48 bass piano accordion and i have no experience at all. Do you think I could start learning with these videos even tho mine will be a 48 bass accordion and not a 12 bass or should I begin with something smaller?

@hang-dogjackson 5 лет назад

I'm self-teaching on a 120-bass and following along fine, KC. You should be fine with your 48, as long as it's a piano accordion.

@MarieHelene108 6 лет назад

Thank you Tony. I can play right hand and I can play left hand but the coordination is very difficult. do you have an advice to support the coordination between the two hands?

@alexandramezey7317 6 лет назад

Thanks Tony for the lessons and MarieHelen for your question -- I see little to no guidance on this issue and would appreciate your advice/exercises, Tony, about coordination of both - piano and bass.

@MarieHelene108 6 лет назад

Hello Alexandra- I have made some progress since I wrote this comment. It took perseverance. I can now keep some simple bit on the left hand.

@alexandramezey7317 6 лет назад

Great about your progress! Yes, perseverance -- practice, practice. I am just wondering if Tony has any exercises or hints to how to coordinate.

@stevenstewart8925 5 лет назад

@josephrichter2104 3 года назад

I was thinking about getting an accordion with 27 keys and 48 bass buttons. I would like to be able to play at least a few of my favourite pieces of music, from German folk, to classical, even to some movie soundtrack songs, like from Lord of the Rings, etc. The site says it has 26 keys, range B-C, 2 voices, 3 registers. Does that mean I couldn't play something involving D keys so well, like Pachelbel's Canon in D Minor, for example? I have never even really played piano or anything else, but have just listened to a lot of music.

@AffinityInspiration 2 года назад

I have an 8 bass, do you have some lessons for this.

@gamespritemode4 4 года назад

So the second row of bass notes plays an entire chord, and the first row just plays one note?

@1997saltydog 5 лет назад

Lol I don't think I can play the accordian or piano. I can't multitask at the same time. If I try to play with both hands, it doesn't work. My left hand won't keep a beat while I try to play the other.

@novantha1 5 лет назад

Most people aren't born able to multitask. It's not even really a matter of skill so much as it is familiarity. You basically have to play a left hand pattern so much that it becomes second nature, and then slowly add one or two notes in your right hand. It also helps to play it slowly and get used to it. Feel free to repeat phrases a lot until you get used to them.

Please change the title to previous music experience required. you were doing so well when you were explaining the notes but then you started hitting extra keys and did not explain those notes thank you for helping me find C but how the heck am I supposed to know what everything else follows after that
