Nice! Bach and accordions go very well together. And cool to see the free bass :) Those low notes on it always sounds so cool

[@BrendanVavra]

Thank you! I think the most challenging part of playing Bach on accordion is the phrasing since, unlike organ, the accordion needs to breathe at some point, and across all voices at once. And yeah, I love getting to hear the lower register in isolation, which none of my other accordions can do.

Bach really works with every instrument. Nailed it!

[@BrendanVavra]

Thanks! Yeah, although the accordion wasn't around in Bach's time, the instrument is really just a portable organ so it works out pretty well. Also, the invention book where I got this music states that it's well within the Baroque spirit to adjust the way you approach a piece (articulation, tempo, etc.) to best fit the instrument playing it. :D

Sounds lovely! I’d love to hear more Accordion Bach!

[@BrendanVavra]

I may learn some more Bach inventions and/or preludes in the future to keep working on my free bass skills. :D

@ that would be so cool to hear!
