Close your eyes while listening to this song, and you feel as though you're strolling through the streets of Paris! You have this wonderful ability to capture the emotion of a song and project it through the instrument. Wonderful job, Richard! I'll be adding it to my own list of favorites on TH-cam. Thanks.
Thanks for your comments. I'd like to think that the technology that Roland provides is not a substitute for musicianship, but simply provides some additional possibilities for us to explore. It certainly has opened up new possibilities for me.
I agree with Richard!! I too play the Roland and I am very happy with it!! As far as not able to reproduce an accordion sound, I strongly beg to differ. Also, when playing the Roland accordion, it does require a lot of effort. I go back to my "real" accordion and have to remember not to pull so hard on the bellows!! LOL!! BTW - I have been playing the accordion for 52 years and have always loved the instrument - the Roland is no exception to my love!!!
This Roland is capable of producing 32 different and AUTHENTIC acoustic accordion sounds apart from the orchestrated voices. This is what progress does, many professional classical piano players now favour the "virtual" pianos that are out there, indeed some even perform on these at live classical events rather than use the grand piano provided. There are so many reasons why they choose this.
You are correct, it is not a "real" accordion, but a "virtual" one. However, it's what I enjoy playing and I have no desire to return to the real one. Richard
Hello Richard very nicely done!! wondering if you would share the sheet music with me? Secondly I wanted to purchase your video on all the tutorials you have done regarding the programming of our Roland FR-7x V-Accordion. Ciao Tony
Piękna francuska melodia, wspaniale wykonana na akordeonie! Beautiful interpretation. Thank you, Richard!

What good is a virtual accordion with all this technology if it has a fabulous musician like you. I'm your fan ...
Congratulations!
