In the Works: "Franco-American Accordion" (2014)

Hello,
Thanks for reading my blog.  I hope you enjoy the different music posts I am posting.  I am currently trying to put together a music book called "Franco-American Accordion" (2014).  It is a collections of French and songs Haunting Halloween-type songs.  Mostly because I could not find this songs written for accordion and because I wanted to learn them.

This book was not made to make a profit but to organize the songs in a way the musician would have easy access to "French Music" opposed to hunting around finding one song at a time.  The songs usually have one or two sections so it's not like a 12 page Classical Book by Mozart.  They are written like a beginner workbook only they are at a intermediate/professional level.

Hope you enjoy reading this music if you decide to order one.  I have to mention that I am NO LONGER doing  EXTENSIVE ILLUSTRATION WORK for EVERY SONG like in previous books.  Photographs and clip art colash.

Some higher scholars call bite off more cause they can chew more. For me I iike to eat slowly and enjoy my meal.

While after playing an instrument that forces you to learn the circle of fifths I still don't think I got it as solid as I should. So when ever I get the chance I think about it. Talk myself through it in my head.

But I have found a better way to think of such a large thing.  Group them in threes.

You can see there are 12, and know that makes it easier because halfway thru is when it changes to the sharps.

The Road To Success Is Paved By Failure

The Road To Success Is Paved By Failure 

The choice is yours the choice is mine 

Let's get together sometime

Don't afraid you'll be fine

it's up to you to make up your mind

To put on a dance show, you'll need some wits

it don't take a fool to come up with some bits

follow yours dreams, and follow the path

get rid of this and keep all that

The Road To Success 

Is Paved By Failure (as it were)

get through the worst 

to get to the best for sure (savior)

We'll be good, we'll be fine

the road to success is yours and mine

Start out slow, write it down

don't be afraid to act like a clown

You could be making, a whole lot of dough

before you know, you've got the flow

The Road To Success 

Is Paved By Failure (as it were)

Yes you must test to find out your savor

made of wood, little boy of pine

but don't caught at the scene of the crime

you should not nervous, it's all your design

It take no fool for a real good time

Get a hold of
