What are accordion registers?

Registers are the switches that can be found next to the keys on the right hand side of the accordion. There are usually anywhere from 3 to 11 registers on an accordion. By switching registers, it changes the reeds that are used and thus changes the sound. For example, one register might sound like a clarinet and another might sound like a bassoon. Or you can have registers that are combinations of different registers. All of these produce different sounds and add more variety to the accordion.


Is a modern accordion similar to a piano?

The right side of a piano accordion, where you play the melody, is similar to a piano, except there are fewer keys and thus a shorter range. On the left side, where you play the bass and chords (accompaniment, the notes are arranged in fifths, and the system is very different from the piano keyboard. On a button accordion the right (melody) side is not similar to a piano keyboard. A piano player will quite easily be able to play the right (melody) side of a piano accordion, but the left side will require additional practice. A button accordion is a completely different system, and the piano player will have no advantage with regards to technique.
