Sempre qui sono ad ascoltarti❤

[@giuseppeferreri6640]

He had such a beautiful touch

[@ChicoChagasmusica]

Many many many thanks!

[@musamor75]

What a beautiful man, what a fantastic musician! Frank Marocco wrote the book. A whole chapter of accordion history lays between his hands. Our instrument has suffered for over a century. There are many "players" who should be shot; they have done the instrument injustice. I agree with Frank when he talks about a certain era, and "romance". Romance comes from the heart- viene dal cuore. HE has inspired generations of accordionists. May his soul rest in peace. God bless you Frank.

Grande artista della fisarmonica 🪗

[@menottipergoli2494]

Frank, da quando ci hai lasciati alcuni anni fa, mi manca l'emozione che dal vivo riuscivi a trasmettermi con le tue esecuzioni caratterizzate da quei suoni di una chiarezza e purezza inconfondibili, unitamente ad un fraseggio inimitabile e ad un senso ritmico ineguagliabile.

[@giuseppeferreriferreri2199]

[@christopherleach157]

Surely it doesn't get any better than this......

[@lizzyg0816]

I remember eating lunch with him in downtown Boston in 2004 while the American Accordionists' Association was in down town Boston with the massed band performing Cheers theme song. I remember telling him and Manny Bobenrieth a joke by Pete Barbutti.

[@mariomalidus-independentmu9225]

thank you!!

[@Viottichiari]

Gostaria de saber o nome de cada uma das músicas!!! Fantástico.

[@williankay7]

Nome da primeira música ?

[@konradbuschhuter5942]

Harlem Nocturne

[@marcelomendes2183]

What's the name of the music in 6:12? tranks!

[@petosaaccordions]

Believe it's "Harlem Nocturne"

[@tonyprince77]

What's the name of the music in 26:08 ? tranks!

[@Dobrovinskiy]

It don't mean a thing

[@polkapunx2317]

Is he playing free-bass or stradella?

[@musamor75]

No, he plays Stradella. But his total mastery, and his unique left-hand, right-hand balance, makes it sound like he's using free left hand. This is because he plays mainly single notes on the left, and of course doesn't resort to "Umpah"- style accompaniment. The only Jazz accordionist I know of who played chromatic free-bass left hand (on Giulietti- built by Zero Sette) was Randy Arase, who played arrangements by Tito Guidotti. Well worth listening to. However Frank Marocco has a phenomenal swing and very unique sound, and is a TRUE improvisor. Wonderful musician, and BEAUTIFUL person.

[@alexmatos7836]

​@John Gargano what do you mean by saying REAL accordion?

[@Dobrovinskiy]

40-s

[@Woddy52]

Gute Musiker, aber grausam und unharmonisch gespielt. Nervig !

[@andreribas_accordion]

Super!!!
