We had dinner with our friends Yuval and Isaac a few weeks ago, and they said they always wanted to learn to play the accordion. I said I'd teach them if I could film our lessons and track their progress on my YouTube channel. They agreed. Here are the results :)

It was so pleasing hearing english speakers say DO RE MI FA SOL instead of the letter notation. I always struggle with the letters and its nice seeing someone from the other side trying lool

Wonderful lesson. I have a 50 year old accordion that belonged to my mother in law's brother and just dusted the mold off. It's an amazing instrument. Plus, who the hell downvotes videos like this?

[alimemari]

Wow just wanted to say thank you.. this stuff is excellent cause it's the real world experience with a real student learning from scratch..

I started my Accordion journey 3 years ago, with no music background. Having a teacher was the key to success because he kept me on track and progressing every week with daily practice and lots of motivation.

[Steve-pqnx]

Hello Sir - I have always maintained that you are one of the finest accordion Instructor and a player. Your explanations are so 'simple' and that is what makes your tutorials so motivating. Your enthusiasm is very 'catchy' and that captivates those who wish to learn this 'king of all instruments' - the one man orchestra as accordion is often called. Please keep up the good work - you are simply a 'natural' Instructor !!! Warm Regards.

great, so glad to see such a good teacher on youtube

I've played multiple instruments over my time on earth and have purchased a old Titano accordion. Thank you for your help!

Dang, just got my own accordion yesterday, and honestly, your channel deserves WAY more attention. You’re totally awesome at it! I’m taking lessons with the shop owner I got mine from. Apparently his uncle was one of the best accordionists in the world, and he’s got lots of experience with it, and his dad played it too. Besides that, it’s also helpful watching some videos like these along with my irl lessons. The video quality is just so nice, you speak clearly, and everything is overall really great! Keep it up man 👌👌👌 Really liking the accordion so far.

((The accordion apparently was owned for a few short months by someone before they fell ill and handed it to the guy’s shop, it’s a 72 bass so it’s kinda heavy, particularly for me since I’m not an adult man, and it’s also big compared to my average height lmao. The brand is Rossetti, and it sounds really nice! Your videos are truly an inspiration to me and your talent really shows! Sorry for the long comment, hehe, but I just really wanted to put it out there. :-)

this is very helpful. I am reticent to play in front of anyone. But seeing this guy, it is not so bad.

[littlegamer-]

Accordion is a great and a hard instrument and now no one is playing soo i need to learn it

[KizetteandTotoro]

What an amazing teacher you are. And to start learning Shostakovich no less…what a treat! Your friend is a pro. I thoughroughly enjoyed it. Thanks (Subcribed immediately, of course)

[amandap]

Good morning, this is perfectly helpful! I cannot wait to take this journey on my heritage accordion.

[zoepardee]

I really dug this lesson. It has inspired me to learn this tune by Shostakovich on my own accordion.
