How to Play "Jingle Bells" on the Accordion

JUDE PARRY: On behalf of Expert Village, my name is Jude Parry. I'm with Gold Coast Theater Company here in Miami Beach, and today we're going to be learning beginning accordion. Now, we're going to introduce D. We've already had C and G, now we're going to move up the keyboard to D, and you'll find these are always in the same position, which is the beauty of an accordion. You don't have to reach from a C to G a bit further up the keyboard, they're all in the same spot. So we're going to go from C to D, which is the one above you right here. And the tune we're going to play for you today is "Jingle Bells." We're also going to use a different rhythm. So if you listen to the length of notes, you'll be able to hear a different rhythm, and its 4/4 time.
