Book excerpt: Immerse yourself in a wonderful collection of accordion melodies from many lands, Poland to Peru. The titles in this book will be well known in the cultures from whence they came, for good reason; these tunes have stood the test of time and tradition and are treasured by musicians worldwide. Arranged in order of left-hand simplicity, there is plenty of guidance to help the beginner with fingering. The pieces are arranged progressively to include simple but effective harmonies and accompaniment, laying the foundation for proficient and flexible accordion technique. Accompanying online audio will help less experienced accordionists develop style and expression while using the full range of the instrument's qualities. Includes access to online audio.
