This book is a mixture of traditional and contemporary tunes from the Scottish accordionists' repertoire.

It explores the common tune types played in Scotland, i.e. the Jig, reel, strathspey, slow air, waltz, march and polka. Some tunes are arranged in a traditional, dance music style where others have been set with a more contemporary feel as used by the author and many of the ?new age? of Scottish accordionists. Strong emphasis has been placed on the use of the left hand to enhance the style and arrangement.

Ian Lowthian was brought up steeped in the Scottish accordion tradition; he is a graduate of the Royal Academy of Music who, since leaving, has concentrated mainly in traditional music as a performer, teacher and composer. / Musiques du monde / Partition CD / Agrafé /

In view of the enormous upswing in popularity that the accordion has experienced as an avantgarde instrument in the last decades of the twentieth century, a systematic elaboration of the latest instrumental techniques and forms of expression, as well as detailed instructions on how to employ the accordion have been sorely lacking.
This book explains all the playing techniques, registers as well as tonal potentials and expressive possibilities of the accordion. It demonstrates the distinctive elements of these techniques and in addition, gives composers valuable information concerning notation.
A CD with examples of sound techniques and excerpts from the repertoire is included. An extra fold-out chart presents a full-sized layout of the treble and bass sides, helping composers to check fingering possibilities. This long-awaited book will be an essential tool for composers, performers and teachers.

- Comprehensive description of all relevant playing techniques on the button accordion
- Practical notation suggestions for composers
- Music examples from important contemporary works
- CD containing examples of all registration and playing techniques and excerpts from the repertoire
- Full size, fold-out chart giving the arrangement of the buttons on the instrument
- Text in two languages (Ger/Eng)

?This book by Bettina Buchmann is a real boon; it gives not only a representative overview of the latest instrumental techniques and forms of expression on the accordion today, but paves the way for composers and accordionists to compose and perform idiomatically on the instrument. The author and publisher deserve the highest recognition for this.? (Teodoro Anzellotti)

?The accordion has enjoyed a revival in popularity in recent times ? numerous composers have discovered it as a solo instrument, in chamber music and also for its orchestral sound. I?m really happy to have this exceptionally clearly laid out book by Bettina Buchmann by my side as a guide and incentive for my further explorations into the instrument.?
(Beat Furrer)

Par CHENIER CLIFTON. This collection of 15 accordion arrangements of tunes by Clifton Chenier (1925-1987) clearly demonstrates why he is known as the undisputed King of Zydeco music. Written for the piano accordion as opposed to the Cajun button accordion, all of the selections in this book are transcribed from Chenier's 1965-1987 recordings on Arhoolie Records. Dix Bruce contributes a fine essay on the colorful life of Clifton Chenier. A delightful companion CD recording is included in the spirit of Chenier's signature cry- 'Laissez les bon ton roulet!' (Let the good times role!) The 15 selections on the companion CD, drawn from Clifton Chenier's various Arhoolie releases, constitute his most popular recordings from 1965 to 1987, when he reigned supreme as the King of Louisiana Zydeco music. Note that 10 of the 15 songs on the CD are transcribed in the accompanying book. / Niveau : Intermédiaire / Cajun-Zydeco - Transcribed Solos / Recueil / Accordéon ou Clavier

100 alte und neue Kinderlieder für Akkordeon. Par SCHUMECKERS MARTINA. / Recueil / Accordéon

Arrangements came from many accordion players who are fans of my music. I have always written music for myself mostly jazz arrangements for different groups that I played with through the years but until I took on a few students in recent years I realized there was not much interesting music for them to play. They heard some of my recordings the solo one?s especially and asked me to write arrangements that were not too diffcult but had some of the more modern Harmonies that I use in my playing and a little more sophisticated musically. They especially wanted some of the great standards or ?Evergreens?. I started writing and found that I enjoyed it and received much good feedbackfrom everyone. I hope you enjoy this Book.

Six beastly humoresques-Global Animals consists of six witty humoresques each depicting an extraordinary creature.There’s the Australian dancing buck that loves to dance in pairs a down-in-the-dumps Egyptian hippo in a permanent grouse with the world or the dastardly Southern European trill mosquito.The extinct Mongolian striped lion is deeply mourned while the arctic numbskull is so shy that he’s never been spotted. Then there’s the continuous shriek of the Columbian screeching ape that’s hard to miss.
