Videos on different aspects of technique, style and repertoire of diatonic accordion, for different levels. With explanations in French and Catalan. Published gradually on my youtube channel and here, dedicated to amateur or professional musicians, melodeon players or lovers.
Sorting of Diatotrucs by level
* Beginner: two-hand coordination, playing on one row
** Beginner-intermediate: row crossing, basic keys, two-hand accompaniment
*** Intermediate: increase of genres, left hand enrichment, ornamentation
**** Intermediate-advanced: increase of rythms and keys, better dynamics and articulation control
***** Advanced: personal style development
Two-hand coordination
Playing with both hands on diatonic accordion. Basic exercises in 2/4, 3/4 and 6/8. Start putting both hands together or consolidate coordination to apply these techniques when playing a scottish, polka, waltz, mazurka, circassian circle or chapelloise.
Level: * (beginner)
Playing chords on right hand
When playing chords with our right hand, there are many different options for each of them (inversions). The key of a good accompaniment lies in our VOICINGS. What are the rules to build these voicings? We work here on two of the most important ones: 1. Small movements; and 2. “Obligatory” resolutions when linking chords of DOMINANT-TONIQUE (V7-I).
Level: *** (medium)
