Re: Quebecois tune on Acadian accordion

Thanks for posting. Funny how different a CA sounds when played "style Quebecois". I just love that bouncy rhythm. It's so hard to do !!

Re: Quebecois tune on Acadian accordion

Pressurized the bellows, quickly tap the button whioe under pressure, the note wil POP

That is part of the element of the Quebec sound. That and extraordinary skill.

Re: Quebecois tune on Acadian accordion

Thanks. I will try that, and maybe I will get closer to that extraordinary sound. Sort of "poppy"indeed. Check out the videos of a young man named Alexandre Caron. He has it, too!
