Demo of Crucianelli Musette Piano Accordion with MIDI System

Take a look at my new toy, this beautiful Crucianelli 120-bass Italian Piano Accordion. As well the lovely traditional musette sound from the internal reeds in the usual way, the instrument now has a brand new MIDI system fitted, which through use of a Roland accordion expander enables hundreds of sounds to be synthesised in real time to add great variety to the music produced. One can also turn off the actual treble and/or bass reeds to have purely electronic sounds for melody, chords or bass, or naturally use as a traditional acoustic instrument with no electronics at all, so the possibilities are endless.

I’ve been playing with this setup for just over a week now, and thought it about time I make a demo video, along with a Christmas medley. Things didn’t quite go to plan however… enjoy!

P.S. Please check out my other accordion videos! Here’s one taken the day after this particular video while I was out street busking for the first time with this instrument…

Magic Piano Accordion Duet (2 Accordions, 1 Player!)

Filmed at the Twinwoods Mechanical organ Festival 2008, this video shows me playing two accordions at once with the aid of a midi link

The accordion I’m wearing and playing is a 120 bass Crucianelli which in addition to its beautifully handmade musette tuned reeds, also has a midi output. Connecting this output to Chris Does Magic Accordion, an amazing self-playing instrument made by organ builder Alan Pell, I’m thus able to play a duet with myself in real time – cool or what!

Here you’ll hear a quick test rendition of Serenade No. 13 by Carl Frei – look at my other accordion videos and you can hear the same piece played on just one accordion, plus more videos featuring this midi accordion in action.
