Accordion Bass Patterns – Digital Download + Booklet
Accordion Bass Patterns teaches you how to play the left-hand bass buttons on the piano accordion. For many players, the left hand feels mysterious at first. The rows of buttons can seem confusing, and it’s not always clear how to create strong, musical bass patterns that support a song.
Take the mystery out of the Stradella bass system
This lesson was made to take the mystery out of the Stradella bass system and give you practical patterns you can use right away. The video is 55 minutes long. Showing the close-up views of the left-hand buttons and finger positions, as you listen to each and every pattern.
Watch the Right Hand ideas to play along with the Left Hand
In the lesson, I move the camera to show the right-hand keyboard side to show how each bass pattern works with the simple chords in the right hand.
Read the Music Notes as you Play each Bass Pattern
Along with watching the video you will receive a companion PDF booklet that I wrote. The booklet shows the patterns in clear notation form. It’s very helpful to see the music notes on paper and to use the booklet as a quick reference guide.
