Beginning Button Accordion
by Paul Kostka
This class is geared towards the absolute beginner,
though if you're an experienced player with a question or two you might
want to drop in at the start as there will be a brief Q&A while we
pass out the accordions and handouts. The accordions used are the little
Chinese made 7 button Hero / Goodlin GL-102 accordions (provided courtesy
of Smythe's Accordion
Center). We'll then cover the basics of the instrument,
learn how to play the C scale, and then learn a simple tune by ear, written
music, and tablature. If you'd like to keep your accordion after the
class, you may purchase it for $15, tax included.
