	Accordion - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The accordion is played by compression and expansion of a bellows, which generates air flow across reeds; a keyboard controls which reeds receive air flow and therefore the tones produced.
		The piano accordion is the instrument most often indicated by the term "accordion", but it is one of the most recent inventions among accordion types, appearing late in the 19th century and not accepted worldwide until the early 20th century.
		In Scotland, the favoured diatonic accordion is, paradoxically, the instrument known as the British Chromatic Accordion.

	How to Choose a Diatonic Button Accordion
		An instrument like a piano accordion can play all types of music equally well, but it is not as easy to learn and it will never be as good as a button accordion at playing toe-tapping folk dance tunes.
		This button is a duplication of reeds found in the same bellows direction in the outside row.
		The "club" model of accordion is a special version of a 2 1/2 row instrument, it has a button on the treble side, in the middle of the inside row which plays the same note in both bellows directions.

	Musician's Guide to the Club System Button Accordion - Advanced Technique (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		Piano accordion technique is based upon the right side of the instrument resting still and stable, whereas button accordion technique allows motion of the right side.
		The piano accordion exerts the greater requirement for stability because the fingers must line up with the keys, whereas the button accordion player's hand may skew with regard to the keyboard without prejudice in view of the rounded and arched buttons.
		The button accordion evolved as an ethnic particularist instrument and was not concerned with being able to play all styles.

	The Session: Discussions - Button Accordion Method (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		I took a few lessons years ago and was taught how to play by transcribing the music into a sort of tablature wherein you write down the button number and use either or __ or V to indicate push or pull.
		Find out where the octaves are (when pushing, two buttons on the same row with two buttons in between make an octave, when pulling you'll need three buttons in between).
		Once you know your way around the buttons and the bellows, when you hear a tune or see standard music notation (assuming you read it already), you'll have some idea of where the notes are going to fall under your fingers and which way to move the bellows.
