Based on 50 years of teaching and performing on the accordion, Mr. Zucco has provided us with a complete and thorough accordion method for children.  In this single volume, three levels of clear, easy-to-understand instruction teach music reading and playing from the very beginning, supplemented by original solos and arrangements.  Students learn to play by feel and touch rather than depending on sight.  Helpful illustrations and photographs are also provided.  This method mentions the 120-bass accordion, but focuses on the 12-bass instrument.  One of the finest accordion methods available
