Accordions are superb rhythm machines - i love vamping, skanking, grooving, boogie-ing, and improvising in all of those ways. A traditional instrument in so many cultures. I found the duple meter dance idioms on the instrument are irresistible - even on a little diatonic box is so easy to render a dance and people move. There are so many elements of syncopation in forro and the solo accordion can execute each one perfectly. It's a killer machine - it's got everything I'm a former drummer and love to move when i play - I like complex rhythm and the box gives a lot to exploit.

My first lessons (12 years of them) and instrument was accordion. Back in my day as a teen, you always tuned to non-tunable (or limited adjustment) instruments in the mix rather than to a tuner. This list for me includes accordions, church pianos, saxophones, trumpets, organs, flutes/penny whistles etc. Oh yeah - and harmonicas. I have a friend with a bag-o-harmonicas and some are better in tune with A=440 than others. We relied on common sense and our ears a lot back then. Still do. If I'm playing with someone who is playing his guitar out-o-tune, I'll tweak on the fly to match them. |

Apparently different countries use different degrees for their traditional styles.

Tuning when playing with an accordion
The question is why...?
