- Scottish jig One Hundred Pipers played in G and then in A on a D/G Serenellini Lady melodeon / diatonic button accordion.
If you play D/G box and haven't done much playing in A then this is a great one to try - no G# required and if you're stuck with thirds in your chords then the E chords are easily avoided. And in G it's a great beginner tune to get used to going over to the D row for the low Es.

Your music never fails to bring a sparkle into my day! 👌
Oh that key change!!!!
One of the first tunes I remember hearing in the piping world as a kid and still love it. This is a fantastic rendition, keep it up
Lovely tune Paul.
Very nice played!!! 👍
Like the tune and I’ve been having fun playing in that A position lately so thanks for another good one 😁
Well played. Have you seen Laurel and Hardy Bonnie Scotland? They dance to the tune.
Lovely playing
I only counted 99. (Just kidding) Sounds great!
Super, bravo !!!
really nice
Since I discovered your channel it has become a great company, both for listening and also for playing along. Thank you for the great job you do, Paul!
I have two questions:
1. Would you give me your permission to upload a video playing along to this? With all the credits and links to your channel, obviously.
2. Is there any plan for an album? I like the video format, but it would also be cool to take your music when I workout or bike around.
Cheers from Chile!
Please explain to me how this works. You're playing the tune in G first, and then you're changing the key to A by pressing the button on the right hand part of it. But then what about the chords? Will they not be out of tune too? I don't imagine you have a palette of chords so wide you can accompany for that without a mechanical keychange too.
The change with the stop on the right hand isn't related to the key change. That's just to add in an extra voice. The chords used in the first key are G, C and D; in the second key A, D and E. All these chords are on the left hand of a standard DG box (thirds out to allow the E to be used as a major).
@@paulyoungfolk So the keychange is entirely based on your play? I imagined that the button would change between two voices, one being the entire G scale, the other the entire A scale. This makes a lot of sense, thank you once more!
Hi Paul I get a question for you I'm planning getting a Button Box I'm not sure on getting a Saltarelle Awen B C or C# D LMM 23 8 or Emmanuel Pariselle
Key of D/G. Flat keyboard with 25 treble buttons they all around the some price
What the benefits & drawback on B C vs C# D vs D G Button Boxes playing Irish Fiddle tunes & Airs ? I know one thing 21 button is out 23 or more is in .
I would love your thoughts , I really dig your playing specially Leaving of Liverpool tune
Cheers Paul
The advice I always give is if you want to play exclusively traditional Irish music and play it in the most traditional way then get a B/C, but if you want to do anything else as well (which would include things like Leaving Of Liverpool the way I play it) then a D/G box is far more versatile.
23 buttons are a slight advantage on a C#/D where that gets you the occasionally useful low G, but for a B/C or D/G it doesn't really matter.
@@paulyoungfolk But isn't Irish music traditionally always played in D? So why then, get a box in B/C?
(Also just to get things cleared up on my end, having a B/C means you can switch between playing B scale and C scale, right?)
Ah, BC accordion FAQ #1...
Yes, a BC accordion gives you the scale of B on one row and C on the other, but between those two scales that gives you all the notes in all keys, so for D you mostly just use F# and C# on the B row and the other notes on the C row.
It's by far the most common type of accordion played by Irish musicians so you can be pretty confident that it's suitable for playing traditional Irish music.
@@paulyoungfolk Oh that makes so much sense!! Thank you!
@@paulyoungfolk Thanks Paul :)
🇮🇪
Paul, thank you for so much, not only for the tune, but for the clear advice you give on choosing B/C or D/G. Could I trouble you with another query please?
I live in Scotland where most players use B/C or B/C/C#. I’d much prefer a D/G but It’s said by some that it can’t be played in A. That’s obviously not true. I wondered (BC accordion FAQ #2?!) whether a complete beginner (ie me) who’d like to play Scottish and English tunes could, at some point, learn to play tunes in A on a D/G box? Many thanks for your help.
Yes, DG works pretty well for many tunes in A. G# in the melody can often be switched for an E or B without damaging the tune too much. And if later on you want to be able to play in more keys you can always upgrade to a 2.5 row DG which (with the right layout) will allow you to play in B flat, F, C, G, D, A and E and as many minor keys.
@@paulyoungfolk A really swift, helpful reply. Many thanks again.
What do you do for Gsharp notes?
Don't need any for this tune. For other tunes in A swapping in an E or a B often works fine.
Hey, do you have any sheet music of this tune? Really love it!!
You'll be able to find it at thesession.org
@@paulyoungfolk aaah yes, I searched for it some minutes ago, but couldn't find it. But now I found it after I searched hundred pipers intstead of one hundred pipers..... thanks
what are the Bass button notes.tnx
The Melodeon net forums has the key layouts of most melodeons, including the bases.
