Waltz #2 Music by Dmitri Shostakovich
Waltz #2 is an orchestral arrangement that has become very popular. Besides the beautiful tunes and variations that make this piece so appealing, it features solos by members of the orchestra, namely the alto saxophone at the opening and the trombone towards the end. I tried to be as authentic as possible in this arrangement. Full disclosure - I don’t own any rights to the music.

SILVER MOON WALTZ by Pietro Frosini
Просмотров 1,7 тыс.4 месяца назад
This is my performance Of “Silver Moon”, or “Luna d'argento”. This charming Waltz was written exclusively for the accordion by the famous Pietro Frosini and recorded In 1928. The harmonies are lovely and captivating. I added many of the embellishments that were added when the music was published (in 1933!). However, the trio (the last section) was printed in a different key. Special thanks to A...
I Don’t Care by Guido Deiro

This Polka is exciting to play thanks to its musical structure and cute mini phrases. I transcribed it from a circa 1913 recording. Imagine - 111 years ago!
BEL VISO POLKA
Просмотров 3,1 тыс.6 месяцев назад
Bel Viso by Pietro Frosini is a Polka comprised of many sections. This enables the accordionist to use the full range of the keyboard to entertain the listener. Note the Trio’s A minor section with its Ragtime rhythm. I employed some of the embellishments I heard from a recording of the late virtuoso, John Molinari. Thanks to Ron Ostromecki for his help.
VIVO by John Gart

“Vivo” is my favorite piece by John Gart. It was dedicated to Pietro Frosini and published in 1946. It is so idiomatic to the accordion, using the various expressive elements that are so unique to the instrument.
Elenita by Charles Nunzio
Просмотров 2847 месяцев назад
Elenita by Charles Nunzio. A “Spanish Three - step” published by Mr. Nunzio in 1942, Elenita is a short but quite challenging work. His son, Charles Jr, told me that the song was named for Mrs. Helen Nunzio. I had the privilege of studying this piece with the composer. In this performance, I included a few modifications that Mr. Nunzio made in his later years. I have it in his own handwriting!
Streamline Waltz by Charles Nunzio
Просмотров 4349 месяцев назад
“Streamline Waltz” was published by Charles Nunzio in 1938. It was probably written for intermediate students, but Mr. Nunzio could never write anything simple. He threw in quite intricate ideas in the fingerings, harmonies, and there is even a Bass solo. When I began my studies with him, we started from basics such as exercises and scales. He brought me this piece which is a pretty good workou...

American Victory March by Charles Nunzio
Просмотров 42110 месяцев назад
This is a composition that my teacher, Charles Nunzio wrote and published in 1942. It is a quite challenging masterpiece. I did not get to study it with him while he was alive. Fortunately, his music still lives on and I was lucky to find this piece. Many thanks to Eddie Monteiro, an early student of Mr. Nunzio, for his help.

TWO GUITARS arranged by Charles Nunzio
Просмотров 324Год назад
This is my performance an arrangement by my teacher, Charles Nunzio, of "Two Guitars". This very popular Russian Gypsy song was composed in the 19th century by Ivan Vasiliev (1810-1870) to words written by Apollon Grigoriev (1822-1864).
Midnight in Paris (1935)

This is my attempt at a wonderful arrangement by the great accordionist, Charles Magnante. Midnight in Paris (from the 1935 movie 'Here's To Romance') was written by Con Conrad & Herb Magidson and was sung by Nino Martini. This rather challenging arrangement was used as a test piece at accordion competitions. Eddie Monteiro gave me his original copy of the music which he studied before I was bo...

Mine is large enough to be considered fully chromatic, which is a nice touch. I've been playing for 3 months now and I'm already amusing the local dancing scene:)
