Summary of this method
Renowned accordionist Médard Ferrero (1906–1972) put his great virtuosity at the service of a structured approach inspired by the high standards of classical music. His four-volume method for chromatic accordion has established itself as an essential resource for building a reliable, clean and lasting technique.
This first volume (Blue), designed as an essential foundation, is intended for those who are beginning to learn the chromatic accordion and wish to start with solid fundamentals. It covers the study of the first instrumental, preparatory and elementary concepts: instrument position, bellows technique, hand position on the keyboard, as well as the essential reference points for gaining ease from the very first exercises.
