Andrey Plays Accordion (Bayan)
Hidden Truth
Original transcription and three bayan arrangement studies.
A: Faithful
Listen to the A/B/C registration audition. This synthesized comparison approximates the reed combinations described below.
Arrangement details and playback limits
- Right-hand pitches, durations, and ties stay unchanged from the cleaned-rests source.
- The D–A–D left-hand chord in measures 3–4 becomes D, omitting the fifth.
- Left-hand pitches use representative octave 2. Arpeggios keep their pitch-class order, not their original multi-octave contour.
- Use a clean middle right-hand reed and light bass registration.
These are arrangement studies, not performer-verified final editions.
- All bayan variants retain 61 measures, 4/4, the source key signature, and quarter-note tempo changes of 105, 102, and 103.
- No free-bass converter is assumed. Root-button and preset-chord voicings depend on the instrument.
- The score reader plays written pitches with a general accordion sound; it does not interpret reed-registration instructions. Use the A/B/C audition for approximate coupled-reed playback.
- The audition uses fixed hand balance and does not reproduce every dynamic, bellows direction, or final diminuendo. MIDI timbre depends on the player.
- Detailed fingering, bellows shaping, and playability still need a real play-through.
