Use a Different Note!
Say you are joining in with your left hand playing the chords… alternating bass and chord e.g. G bass, G major, G bass, G major etc. I call this “Root, Chord, Root, Chord”. The next step might be to play: root, chord, 5th, chord. The 5th is D bass which is next door to G bass so it’s not too tricky. In fact the whole G scale in bass notes is only a button or two away so try different ones! Here are some of my favourite moves:
Root, chord, 3rd, chord. The 3rd is always the note on the counter bass row next to the root.
Root, chord, 6th, 5th.
Root, chord, 7th, chord, 6th, chord, 5th, chord.
Root, chord, 5th, b7th. (For modal or minor stuff) - ภาพยนตร์และแอนิเมชัน
I like the fact that you never needed to mention what the chord was, just once you changed the tonality to minor but still no need to say the root. The beauty of Stradella basses, it doesn’t matter, once you’ve learned one pattern it applies to all.
Wow if only i could be as good as that
George, have looking for tips like this for a while . Please give us more bass instruction similar to this. Thank you.
Cheers Ron - I will do some more when time allows! Meanwhile I have some other tips etc at www.georgewhitfield.co.uk. (PS I notice I made a mistake in this video - it's a flattened 7th not a flattened 5th)
Mind blown, just started playing accordion
I am so excited to get my first accordion tomorrow now! I love improvising
cool tricks, hard to find advice for bass patterns on TH-cam
Good tips George, thank you. Are you still active ? I've noticed a lot of the videos are from a few years ago .
Wow this is great. Thank you very much George
Just takes loooottttsss of practice........lol....👍💥 thanks
This is a beautifully amazing Idea - Great ! Regards.
Great tips, thank you soo much.
Exelent tutorial.
Good tips.
My biggest issue is finding a minor key say, a few buttons away. DO you have tips on navigation eg G to B minor, or even further away. Or os it just getting your 10 000 hours in?
Nice scandalli George. I see you also have a Beltrami there. You dont see these very often. I have one . its a 96 bass 34key LMMM
Thanks Colin - Ilove my Beltramis -(I've got 2!) If you're interested there's a page about them here: georgewhitfield.co.uk/accordions/
Thanks for the reply George.That was interesting to read about your accordion build. You can see a shot of me on Claudios web page. I am standing on stage of the scottish hall in Wiapu New Zealand . It was New years eve 2007,
Claudio built my accordion especially for me. It is 96 bass 34key LMMM fitted with Musictech Musicmaker . I will try and send a photo
