Foreword

Music is a unit, yet for methodological reasons it is necessary to break it down into individual elements for efficient practice.

  • The rhythm represents the dynamic,
    life …
  • The harmonics add the aesthetics,
    the processing …
  • The sound carries the variety,
    often the coloring …
  • The portrayal brings a touch of emotion,
    of personality …
  • The form mixes all this with intelligence,
    it structures …

But the melody is the most personal, the most exquisite expression
of your musical character. It arouses inspiration and emotion,
more strongly than technique and knowledge.

This book is the second in a series of three volumes. It is dedicated to melody, which is dealt with under its theoretical and practical aspects.

Theory is not indispensable for working with the repertoire in this second part, as it can answer many of your questions if you feel this is important.

The accordion we are talking about here should be alternating and diatonic.

Good courage !
