Hello,

I am launching this discussion to know what you think or to share your experience and your feeling on the multiple learning methods that exist.

Depending on your learning age, with or without a teacher.

So as I start the discussion, I begin:

Well I started with the Maugain method volume 1 and a teacher at the conservatory and yes! at 40 years old ....

I had the impression to row at the beginning, not to advance, and I found the method with these drawings of child enough....what to say.... the pieces to work were rhymes then small crocodiles etc.... it was not terrible.
And then, with time, well yes! it was a good method, finally I learned a lot, because since 3 years, no more teachers nor methods and it is a little the galère.
I'm going back to school next week, and my teacher advised me to use the Galliano method, father and son, I'll tell you more later when I've tested it.

Now it's your turn! lol

Hello, I am new on the site and new in learning the chromatic accordion. What is less new is me since I have 60 years of life learning, and I haven't understood everything yet.it will be 3 years that I'm stammering on my keyboard by taking lessons with a teacher.So reading notes of the 2 keys, solving some scores, typing rhythms, both hands to work on the independence of the 2 hands, study with 3 methods: - method for keyboard button and piano by André Astier and Joss Baselli - method of chromatic accordion 1st year by Médard Ferrero - method of Lucien and Richard Galliano. my teacher loves this method, but it moves a little fast, which forces to do more of the other methods. I am currently stuck on a mazurka. Pfffff!!!!!!!This site seems to me very nice, congratulations to those who make it live, and if my faith I can bring something and well I will do it.Ah well, and if I put the Galliano method it could interest someone? If yes I will try to do it, but what a work for a retired. lol See you soon

Hello Babilone,

Nice to meet you and thanks for sharing.

I went to my second class tonight with a new teacher, he gave me my methods, galliano, the practical manual for the study of the keys and another book called "Solfège populaire" based on rhythm.
I start again from the beginning, a real reset to start again to zero.

Y'a plus qu'a as they say...

Good evening to all and good weekend

Thanks cindou, your 2nd link is great, level 1.5 is the difficulty level I am working in today. So I keep it preciously. However, it did answer my question in a timely manner, but where did you get this link from? Apparently these are your scores. You are Bill's daughter (Gate) or what? Thanks for the answer and the quick response. Can't wait for level 2 :=))

I'm working on Jesolito right now. The bass is giving me some trouble. But I hang on (or I could have written my eighth note) I saw that you were proposing it.
