How to Play Sharps & Flats 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, we're going to move on the bass keyboard down to B flat which is below F and often is played F together with B flat and on the treble keyboard where I should be going to hit some of the sharps and flats that are notated if you look at the--how they are notated. This is sharp symbol and over here this is a B and a flat symbol. So it's the same note but flattened or sharpened. I'm going to do "Over the Waves," a little bit of Over the Waves. [PLAYS ACCORDION]. I wont go on any further I just wanted to mention the sharps and flats and at the same time that we actually move down to F.
