Advice on On-line Basic Tuition for 5 Row CBA

[Russ]

Hi Chat Is the maugin book for the B system? - the picture on the cover looks like a B system.

The Galliano is for C system and so probably would not be a help to you if you play a B

I'm new to all of this but I have just purchased a Roland FXR1B, as far as I am aware I am setup for the C-Griff Europe setting which i believe is the C system you refer to. Certainly the notes correspond to the CDEFG on the C-Griff Europe table. I agree, I can't make sense of the picture on the front although I have one or two "greatest classical guitar tunes of all time" books with acoustic steel string guitars on the front. I've found the book I have is really good and have no complaints but just wondered what more the Galliano had to offer. This is also in French.

The number of CBA accordion teachers in the UK is growing. In complement to online basic tuition, one could also pay a visit to a CBA accordion teacher and ask advice.
There are now a few CBA accordion teachers in cities like London, Manchester (Craig Bradley) and going north to Edinburgh (Paul Chamberlain).

In a few years other accordion students will graduate from conservatories, and the number of accordion teachers residing in the UK will rise.

The Galliano book has excellent C system fingering.

If in fact your book is for B system it will not help with C system fingering. If it is set up for C system fingering, if you like the book you should probably stick to it - no use muddling things up with too much info.

The Galliano, although in French, has minimal text, and fairly easy to figure out, even by a non french speaker.
