Wow Is that your arrangement? Is it available?

Just beautiful, you have amazing skills!

❤

how long have you been playing accordion i wish i was as good as you

Brilliantly and beautifully done Bernadette. I can’t count the number of times I’ve played this song. I don’t think there have been as many tunes from the jazz idiom that have such emotional depth as this one in both the quality of the chord movements and melody, simply put to a fantastic chord progression that immortalizes Chopin’s Prelude in E minor. Often found in musical books in D minor, the composer originally played it in B minor. I’ve played it in both keys but prefer the original B minor key. Internally, I’m of quite a stoic nature and find the melancholia of this tune a contradiction in terms but my discipline comes out and says “Get used to it Richard, paradox is everywhere and there’s no getting away from it, a universal joke mother nature likes to play, has played on us since time immemorial." I've mused on the title Insensitive chosen by the composer and have concluded that the Bossa Nova version is in deed a contradiction to Chopin's most sensitive depth put into his prelude. The Giulietti in your hands is brilliant and really makes this song come alive. Blessings. Richard.

One of our former band's favorites, we played the Captain & Tennille version many times. Thanks for the memories B!

You have certainly and enjoyably nailed it this time. A backyard accordionist can feel very inadequate watching and listening to that bass arrangement. A head titles piece by Henry Mancini from the film "The Silver Streak" might be faithfully playable on accordion as it has a similar bass pattern. It runs from timecode 0:00 to 2:25 on this linked youtube clip. Unfortunately the piece as presented rolls over into the next cue without a nice conclusion. ruclips.net/video/KJX6S1MQTGk/видео.html

Well there's a good childhood memory back to different times and ways of life. A neighbour had a big old but then new radiogram. "Diana" plus Julius LaRosa's "Suddenly There's A Valley" would be playing on it very often cranked up loud. They did not play anything from Elvis.

Why do i like this song so much Bernadette? Well it reminds me of that amazing innocent love I had for a few of my gorgeous female teachers without the 'I'm so young, you're so old.' They were just my secret innocent loves. Of course now that I'm older, looking back I've known a few women who told me, "He looks at me with those innocent puppy eyes." I'm now sure that my teachers back then could see the same thing but they treated me with grace and courtesy as they would have any of the other students. But it had a profound effect and put me in a direction to be the man I am today. May innocent love never go out of fashion.

I'm giving Bernadette a B and Anastasia an A. Beeutiful ladies. Richard.

Sensational, as always. I love the mother/daughter duets.

I have heard those street organs in Holland and your playing brings back those memories. Richard.

It's so easy.......like taking candy from a baby ? I don't think so ; however it sounds great. Richard.

Amazing! Love it!!

Amazing! Love it!!

You two are great!

Dear B, that is one lovely piece of music. I love your rendition! Thanks for sharing your talent with all of us.

You are a great team! You both make this look so easy, but I realize that hours of practice go into this.

I love the music! Beautiful playing.

A nice combination of melodies from 3 of the greats, played by the dynamic duo of accordion music, Mom and Stasha! Keep up the nice playing Stasha!

Very good. :-)

Oh my God. I thought I was the only one who played this tune ever since I heard it on the radio by Ronnie Hilton back in I think about 1965. Usually this song is performed by folk bands but I started playing it along with another cute tune called the Log Driver's Waltz... they seem to go together. I was fascinated to hear the Dino Baffetti for once in just accordion mode only. Sounds great. And I love all of those little embellishments you put into the music too. And aren't those key changes in the song amazing? Adds to the dynamics I think. Laughing out loud from you video notes: Clog wearing mice indeed. Still looking forward to you playing some baroque and classical. In the meantime... Blessings.

I have never heard this tune. So delightful. I could hear your playing all day long!

Absolutely brilliant thank you very much for the request it was played beautifully all the very best ❤️❤️❤️

Love this!

Brava !!!!!!

Brava!

Beautiful, Bernadette. A new tune to me . Catchy. I can almost hear Abba doing lyrics. Richard.

Nice, Bernadette. A very professional set / backdrop too.........and a key change . What more could one ask for ? Richard.

I enjoy pieces which have that octave echo with the held lower note. I am not enough of a real musician to know what that is correctly called. I use it on an accordion version of Roger Whittaker's "Dirty Old Town". Considerably offtopic, here is a link to a piece that you might simply enjoy listening to. The piece probably would not translate faithfully to accordion as it is a ragtime piece for piano by a present day composer. It is named Tiffany Lamp Rag by Vincent M. Johnson. A duet with a free bass accordion player might work but getting there would be a real mission. ruclips.net/video/a-g9Bysqpa0/видео.html

Very nice, as always.

Absolutely wonderful! Love your rendition!

AS ALWAYS: WOW and WONDERFUL

This is beautiful thank you and I love the movie

WOW 🎉

Nice version. Happy New Year from Melbourne 🎉

Bravo!

Very nice, best Whishes!

Great job, Bernadette! Happy New Year to you and your family!

As always, I LOVE to hear you play. Best Wishes for a Happy New Year! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

🎉 vibrando con la mejor música en accordion es mi deseo para este nuevo año 2025! Felicidades 🎉❤🪗🎵🎶👍🤗

That is a nice listen. The progression of tone colours you achieve on the bassbox I have yet to master. My stiff-jointed fingers are no longer able to be as contortionate as they once were. You most likely know of accordionist Cathie Travers and may have already heard her piece Old Mr T's Dormobile. Her instrument, a Titano, she had modified by masking off one of the high keyboard registers with paper patches which would be reversable to restore the instrument to original. Here is a link to her piece which you may enjoy. All the best for the New Year for you and your own. ruclips.net/video/6nQKHXShTBM/видео.html

Älskar, att lyssna när du spelar jag får sån ro i själen precis som när min far spelar.🥰🥰🥰

I don't think I've heard anyone play it better than you.

Thank you Bernadette, very wonderful rendition!

one of my favourite covers of all time ‼‼‼‼

the best

Thank you for this! I’m Polish and I love listening to you play the Koledy. My husband is from Mexico so you perfectly balanced it out with this song 🇵🇱🇲🇽
