This style of accordion playing is structured so that the right-hand melodies,riffs, etc., are played with accompaniment other than left-hand bass notes and chords. This cassette provides you with a tireless accompanist who will back you up both at performance tempo and at learning speed (half tempo). Your playing will be improved rhythmically by praticing with the tape, since the accompanist functions as a "musical metronome" as well.
