The Mechanics of the Accordion with Alex Meixner

[@alhetmooie]

Thank you, Alex! Always wondered about the magic I hear and see on Molly B. Great explanation and history. I'll be listening and watching with a new appreciation.

I just ran across this. I've always been fascinated with how things work. This was very interesting Alex. It makes me want to know more!

I've been playing accordion for about 26 years but only five years of lessons. Also yearly competition in Leavenworth WA, but I quit competing after my teacher died. Played piano accordion for most of the time until I switched to chromatic button accordion 5 years ago.

I have learned things about the accordion watching u on this video. I only had about a year of formal lessons. Thank u for taking time to demonstrate this versatile fun to play instrument. Kids are so fascinated and curious. Wish more children were taught to play. We need more good teachers like you. From Terrie in Bethlehem.

Just great. Does anyone know how the song that starts at 2:13 is called?

[@alexmeixner]

That song is "Under Paris Skies" or "Sous Le Ciel de Paris"
