Perhaps no other instrument is as commonly abused as the accordion. And understandably so… the accordion is very difficult to play at a high level, so most often the instrument fails to even glimpse its potential in the hands of a novice. In the hands of a virtuoso, however, the accordion shines and the listener is left wondering how so much music can be coming from a single instrument.

Strange thing though, if this video here is any indication, it seems you must be more than exceptionally talented, but also a little bit silly if you hope to master the accordion. After the performance, Click Here to see another amazing accordion video.
