How to Play a Waltz on the Accordion

JUDE PARRY: On behalf of Expert Village, my name is Jude Parry. I'm with Gold Coast Theatre Company here in Miami Beach, and today we're going to be learning beginning accordion. Okay now on the bass side, you'll see that I'm using the finger 4 and 3. This is a pretty weak finger right here but it's good to use it at the accordion because later we're going to incorporate this ring finger--the forefinger as well. So we're going to do this with some sort of pattern but right now I'm going to use these three and four I am going to do this pattern here which is one hold it, two hold it, three hold it, four like this. Okay now we're going to move to the bass keyboard. If you'll look my fingers play out this finger, the ring finger and the middle finger, and I'm using these because they--this one is the weakest one but later we're going to use all three in a pattern so you can use this one and this one but it's better to use this one.
