Re: Chere tout toute

To summarize my first three weeks with a diatonic, albeit three row accordian.

First, I have not seen tablature yet, if I have I didn't know it.

I am using several methods, the bargain of the century was Senor Maestro from Reyes Accordion (tejano mainly)website. (By,the way, can anyone figure out how to "print screen" in this program?) I also made a chart of the left side buttons, this helped.

The Savoy/Le Det DVD has also helped quite a bit. I am sure the other DVDs are equally informative.

At W***M**T I bought a Yamaha keyboard for the price of a few lessons. It is easier to follow on a piano (for me) and then use "Senor Maestro"

"Feel the music", My mentor has reminded me it ain't nothin' but a party!

Question: Except for the "cheater" buttons (the sharps, on a GCF) is a single row the same as a cajun accordion? Grizz

Re: Re: Chere tout toute

If you have Windows, you can make a pritnt screen by pushing on CTRL-SHIFT-PrintScrn.
After that the screen is in the Clipboard.
Now you can paste it in i.g. Word or Paint.
In Paint you can select the piece you want.
Enough about computers, I'm gonna play the accordion.

Dave, you can get a few on the links below. There are not many, and may not be what you are looking for, but may be worth looking at.
