How to Play Multiple Notes 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, I seem to be going too quickly for any beginner, but I just emphasized that every time I do one of these little tutorials, you're going to go away and practice what you've learned from here. So before we did all these different notes and jumping around from basses, and I'm going to add this one little thing, that we're playing 3/4 waltz time. So--and at the same time, there's one more thing that you do here. Instead of keeping all five fingers on the same notes, you're going to stretch from 4 to 2, you see? Instead of it being two notes in between, there are three, because that one's on a bar and this one's on a space. So when we get to it, I'll show you what I mean. And here's the song, it goes "Dreaming" in 3/4 time.
