  • In this video I lay out the basic fundamentals that I see as absolutely necessary for learning to play the bayan, a Russian B-system chromatic button accordion.

    This used bayan was purchased from eBay, sold by accordion-bayan.com. You can go to their website, but I believe their eBay name has changed to “inner-harmony”. “tetkost” is another reliable eBay seller. I recommend these two because their instruments are professionally restored

    Nice video, I play the Bayan as well and would recommend if anybody is starting out to play major alternating bass using your ring finger for your primary bass, middle finger for major chord, and index for the accompanying bass (the 5th). For alternating minor and 7th bass pattern to use your ring finger again for your primary bass, your index for your chord (be it minor or 7th), then your middle finger for your accompanying bass (the 5th). This way you move your fingers around a lot less and you can access your complimentary bass row a lot easier.
    Keep up the sweet content! cheers,

  • @robynrox

    OK... as a multi-instrumentalist who has ordered one of these beasts which is yet to arrive... I'm trying to figure it out!
    The right side I think is pretty clear - many sites seem to refer to it as a CBA (Chromatic Button Accordion) B-system, or Bayan, as you say. That's partly because I've read up on the chromatic button accordion, but there are so many types of accordions that it is difficult to separate them out! Basically every row bears notes separated by a semitone and every column is a minor third above or below the column next to it.
    The left side - it looks to me that of the five rows, row 2 (numbered from the left as seen by the observer in the video - I have no idea if this is the right designation for it!) has the individual note C on its dimple key, and I understand that going up and down the columns moves around the circle of fifths. Going down is equivalent to going down by a fifth (or up by a fourth) and going up is equivalent to going the other way. If you press row 2 and row 3 of the same column at the same time, you get a major chord whose tonic is that of the 2nd row. If you press row 2 and row 4 of the same column at the same time, you get a minor chord whose tonic is that of the 2nd row. If you press row 2 and row 5 of the same column at the same time, you get a diminished chord whose tonic is the 2nd row tone.
    You didn't play the 1st row but I suspect that that renders a tone that is a major third above the tonic, based partly on what I have read and partly on the colours of the keys. The one I am getting from eBay has this same colour, so I think it has to be this type.
    I'm looking forward to when it comes! Thanks!

    • @romanslav827
      @romanslav827 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      The bass may seem like a random collection of buttons, but the way you should think about it is the chords on the bass move up by 4ths from top to bottom. You should check out some tutorials on chord theory and you will get it.

    The Bayan different from my Italian accordion
    It has got buttons on all sides while accordion has got three piano keys on one side and buttons for bass on the other one
    Even in this side is different because Bayan hasn’t got diminished chords on the bass side
    For the rest is equal
    Greetings from Italy!!
    Edit: Ah I forgot!
    The bass side of the bayan is stocked by three tunes, right?
    While the accordion bass are stocked by 5 tunes
    And when we use the alternate bass technique, we use all three fingers
    We hit the single bass line (the second one) with the Annular, the third right for major chords with the middle finger, the fourth, the fifth and the sixth with index

    Both my Bayans do this thing with the bass where if I press one button a few others go down and ruins the bass sound, I don’t know if it’s normal or a way to fix it

    • @theonewhocheekibreeki5521
      @theonewhocheekibreeki5521  4 ปีที่แล้ว +13

      Bayans have connected bass buttons. For example, if you press one down, any matching bass notes will also go down, since they are the exact same note. However, this shouldn’t make any difference in sound

      theonewhoCheekiBreeki thank you, and I see yours does it too now, my Vostok c base is extremely loud compared to yours though. It presses a matching bass note that is in the row closest to the bellows and the buttons closer to them are much lower notes. My really old one, made sometime in the 80s maybe, isn’t as loud as my Vostok

    Love the AK..lol
    But when playing, how do you know which buttons to press with the left hand?
    Do they have to be the same distance on the keyboard from the top as the right hand, or is there any other rule?
    I'm trying to understand how you decide which base button(s) get pressed and when?
    Thank you for any clarification..:)

Does anyone know whether the bass works the same (as in the vertical position of buttons only determines scale)? It'd be much appreciated.
