Just love your inventive bass lines. they really lift a tune. 'thanks of the posting

I learned « Bear dance » next year. I really prefer your way to play this « mélodie ». Merci pour cette version. Et pour les autres aussi. Simple, agréable. So sweet...

Last year of course!

Thanks for this helpful play-along session! I’m trying to improve my melideon playing: to learn how to play chords on the off beat sometimes, and to learn some new ornamentation ideas. This is a great way to practice!

What a great video Paul, thank you so much for taking the time to do it, it is very much appreciated. Yes please for more of the same.

Thanks very much! I enjoy your videos.

Hi Paul! Thank you so much for this video - and all your other wonderful videos. If I ever make the decision to start playing the melodeon seriously, you're going to have played a substantial role in that. If you ever felt like doing more videos like this, I'd certainly love to see them. I don't remember the exact tune you played in another video I enjoyed equally as much - but you basically kept adding layers onto a simple tune, and that seems like a great format as well. Right now I'm just listening, but if I ever do start playing those would be very helpful as well. There's another thing as well - you've played some french tunes as well, and I know so little about that tradition and that music, and I find it difficult to find information about it - it's not as easy as with English and Irish music, for instance. That might be another thing to explore - tunes or similar in the Blowzabella-end of the spectrum. :) Either way, thanks for making these. They're fantastic.

Hi Paul, really enjoyed this and very useful for a beginner DG player to have a set of session tunes to build towards. I'd really like it if you could do a similar video of beginner DG Irish tunes in the same fashion. Thanks again, Henry

Fantastic! I love this video and these songs! Thank you! Could you please do one on playing with the left hand on a D/G melodeon? My left hand and the concept of rhythm even is very foreign to me. I’m used to trying to pinpoint and copy the melody……but rhythm is new!

I cannot help but notice you play some tunes with a definite Cajun flavour with the syncopation and twirls. Cajun is my favourite. I am sure you can do it. Can you please do a rip roaring yes haa Cajun tune for us? I would love to learn that. Pete

What a great idea. Thank you so much! I know the notes are widely available but would it be possible to get hold of notes with ‘tabs’ to indicate fingering etc?

Thanks! More of the same please maybe with a few Québécois and Cape Breton (similar style = simple) tunes. Happy New Year!!!😎✌️🌞🥂🥂🥂🥂🥂🥂

I would love to see a GC version of this, or at least know what short list of beginner songs for GC you would play for a similar video.

Thanks for these Paul, two turns I’d love to learn on DG box are The Man In The Brown Hat, and Horizonto. May be a bit ambitious but I can dream. Happy new year to you.

Nice to hear these tunes played well. Some comments on the bass would be great, how to get that sparse sound.

I think his recent video on bass for B/C could point you in the right direction re: varying your bass/chord technique

@@JayNewberyy Thanks, yes - that B/C video is just as applicable to D/G

I love this! Have u got any jigs that i can play on a CF melodeon?

More of these please!

Brilliant! Many thanks.

thank you it helped me a lot

🙂

Thanks Paul, great Videos. What do you think about the dutch reversal tuning or the Belgium? Do you play ist also? Eddy

....also I wonder how long that strap is? My strap is at full length and I still can’t seem to rest it comfortably on my knee like this!

Ciao io mi chiamo manuel atzeni sono sardo appassionato anchio do organetto Sei un grande complimenti 👍👍

what model melodeon is that ?

If you fancy doing the same with GC tunes, I'd be here like a shot.
