 An internet forum, known as the ‘button box forum’, for players of the British Chromatic BCC# diatonic accordion has been set up by enthusiasts George Garside, Mike and Bill Young. The forum is for players, enthusiasts, and anyone who is curious about this unusual and often misunderstood system.The British Chromatic accordion is a hybrid instrument, with a diatonic treble and a stradella bass, whose best known exponent was the great Sir Jimmy Shand (1908-2000). Current high profile players include English folk singer John Kirkpatrick (picture right) and Scottish Champion Brandon McPhee. For further information email: w.young@btinternet.com |
