The wonderful world of the accordion 4

By Vjera Odak

As an integral part of the whole, and a logical continuation of the previous parts, the book The Wonderful World of the Accordion 4 introduces musical examples which, by their technical and musical requirements, are intended for the students in their fourth year of primary music education. The textbook is comprised of three programmatic units:I - etudes by various composersII - Old Masters compositionsIII - a selection of compositions by various composers.Each unit features a wide choice of compositions varying from very simple to quite complex on the tehnical and interpretative sides. I hope that way every student will be able to find something they will enjoy playing. At the same time I attempted to leave enough room for the creativity of both the student and the teacher. I have allowed for the greatest leeway with the choice of fingertips of right or left hand, mostly due to the possibilities of adjustment depending on the type of the instrument the student is using (piano accordion or bayan, standard bass or chromatic bass). I hope all students will find something for themselves in this book, and acquire new musical knowledge and the skill of playing the accordion with ease and joy. I wish them a lot of success! To their teachers I am grateful for the useful suggestions and successful cooperation so far, and I wish them best possible results, and teaching with pleasure.
