I missed your musette discussion. I just published a new book on the musette and the dances. If only I had tuned in, I might have been able to include some of your comments as contribution. So, I'll listen tonight and see what I missed. Perhaps, in a 2nd edition, I can add more to the book. Thank you for providing this chat room. I think you're providing a great service by holding these dialogues. Sheri PS, I'll send you the E-book. hope your address is somewhere on the website... Well, darn! I missed your musette discussion.

I've only listened to a couple but find them more than banter. I was curious why no one has (apparently) submitted any comments...so here's mine. I grew up in Goosetown, Italian ghetto in San Jose, and studied accordion there. I was born in '46 as well--but when people ask me how long I've played, I usually say "Kennedy was President." It's true. I never won a statue but I played Tchaikovsky in 4-part accordion bands. I've spent my life trying to elevate the accordion since it has been in the mud for so long. Thank you for providing these discussions. I have your CD--with Miami Beach rumba and I've played it for many,many decades. i'll be playing it next week at the San Francisco Accordion Club, and I'll dedicate my version of it to you. Ciao, and please let us know when you come out to the bay area, will you? Ci vediamo, Sheri Dear Bill,
