GUEST,martin ellison Why a melodeon? (94* d) RE: Why a melodeon? 23 Jul 08


Pip - one of the most satisfying things about a melodeon is learning how to play it tastefully/quiet/inventively. I seem to want to play lots of slow, stately and chordal music at the moment. Of course it naturally leans towards "bounce" but just like the piano accordion players who can play with oomph, brio and rythmic panache, it takes practise and a little fight against its' initial tendency to chop the notes. I'm still learning but what a glorious sound when it works.
