Summary of This Method
At the turn of the 20th century, the accordion broke free from popular salons to establish itself in concert halls and conservatories. In this momentum, Tino Prati became a reference in the pedagogy of the instrument, with the ambition to provide accordionists with a solid technique and a complete musical language. His approach highlights three essential foundations: mastery of the bellows, independence of the hands, and rigorous rhythmic reading, in order to develop an expressive, precise, and decidedly contemporary playing style.
The "Technique moderne de l'accordéoniste Op.18" offers a progressive path, designed to guide the student step by step. The exercises target articulation (legato, staccato), finger flexibility and agility, as well as the development of scales and arpeggios in different keys. The method also emphasizes coordination between the right and left hands, essential for gaining regularity, clarity, and comfort in playing.
Throughout the pages, graded studies place the technique in a musical context. They strengthen reading skills, tempo stability, and touch control, while guiding the accordionist toward a finer management of the bellows to shape phrasing and dynamics. Ideal for building solid foundations, this method effectively prepares for repertoire interpretation, both as a soloist and in ensemble.
