Teach Yourself to Play Accordion

I bought this in 2014 but have only just started to learn the accordian (thanks to lockdown) and I have some music knowledge so have got on ok so far without the CD which unfortunatey I have lost. I find this book very good to follow, very clear but not easy if you don't have the CD so I'm now stuck because I don't know if I'm playing it right - any chance of getting another CD or a MP3 download? I've got onto the alternating bass patterns and trying to play Ode to Joy with alternate bass patterns. But stuck. It's a joyous book and I'm really enjoying learning. So, no fault of the author who is incredible. It's my own fault but I can't find anywhere to buy the CD on it's own. Don't really want to have to buy another book :). Any advice greatly received . To conclude, apart from losing the cd, the book is brilliant.

It was ok didn’t tell you the button chords which was disappointing, the DVD was quite useful but you can’t watch and play because you couldn’t see which buttons were being pressed. More for intermediate level than beginners.

This is one of the best Accordion tutor books I have found. It explains the basics of music well.It has a useful CD to go with each lesson in the book. there is only one section where I am not sure which fingering method should be used

This was brought as a gift for a novice. Easy to follow

The book is everything a beginner could wish for everything in simple language and the cd helping to make sure it is understood. Thanks.

Fabulous item, wonderful price, and speedy delivery. Many thanks, John BT.

Very useful book
