L' accordéoniste

Melbourne

Son homme est un artiste
C'est un drôle de petit gars
Un accordéoniste
Qui sait jouer la java

Her man is an artist
He is a funny little man
An accordionist
Who can play the java
(fragment from l'accordéoniste,
written and performed by Edith Piaf)

Wonderful candid photo and a great find for Red. I agree with you about the melancholic feeling the sound of an accordion induces. "V"

I had one of these, same colour too, they're not light to hold, he's wise sitting down.
Lovely shot Mieke!

I saw the accordion played in Switzerland last year - I rarely hear it in NZ.

Wow! I haven't seen an accordian like this. It appears to be a combination of an accordian and its relative that is usually round with the long bellows. Beautiful!

Great street candid, I love the piano accordian music,my daughter plays one.

What a super scene! The shoes in the background lend a nice, old-fashioned feeling to this image!

I love this...my grandfather played and we loved listening to him and missed it when he was gone.
A great street scene
