Download or read book The Irish Accordion Tutor Vol 1 written by Damien Connolly and published by . This book was released on 2018-06-07 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: DVD SOLD SEPARATELY! (The DVD contains close-ups of the author as he plays slowly through each tune in the manual).This highly praised Irish Accordion Tutor, Vol 1, by All Ireland accordion Champion Damien Connolly:* Caters for reading both staff and BoxTab(tm) (a unique variation of the ABC notationsystem) notation styles. Each tune is written out both ways on facing pages. Not only will this make learning easy, but it can help musicians to understand both systems of music notation, by comparing one against the other.* Provides its readers with detailed fingering for each tune-even the grace notes! When learned and practiced, the suggested fingering patterns and techniques should give the player greater control of the accordion, and ultimately greater freedom of expression while playing.* Helps you learn in stages. Grace notes are indicated by smaller finger numbers. If a studentwishes to "put off" learning the grace notes, he or she can concentrate on the main notes, and come back to the grace notes at a later stage.* Gives clear illustrations of how to play musical ornaments such as grace notes, tripletsand rolls along with alternate ways of playing these same ornaments. For example,Damien introduces four types of triplet, four types of rolls in both the manual and video.* Uses color to teach how to play basses. Each bass and chord pair is indicated by a specificcolor symbol overlayed on the BoxTab of selected tunes. Many accordion students have a dread of basses. However, using this clear-cut system, the student will easily grasp how they are used.Perhaps the most innovative feature of The Irish Accordion Tutor is that it indicates the bellows direction by color coding. At a glance, the student can tell whether a certain note is produced by pushing or pulling. This will greatly speed up the learning process for most students.The Irish Accordion Tutor caters for all levels of accordion students. While no single fingeringsystem can claim definitive status over another, this book provides one excellent techniquefrom which the student may develop his or her own style.
