Events Calendar

Gordon has developed a special sound on the digital accordion and conducts monthly acoustic and electronic workshops in San Diego, as well as special workshops at conventions, accordion festivals and accordion clubs, using learning tapes and teaching materials he has developed. These are active workshops in which attendees can participate by playing a variety of music on their accordions.
In addition, Gordon has been teaching at his own accordion & piano school since the age of 20, allowing him to stay in touch with changing trends in music education. Students today want to explore ideas of what the accordion left hand can do to add harmony and rhythm to dance styles such as Salsa, Java, Latin Tango and Beguine, as well as jazz, boogie, Zydeco, Klezmer, Tex Mex, Cajun, Musette and classical selections, challenging both students and teacher.

He plays weekends with a local dance band, as well as solo, around Southern California. He entertains at Octoberfests, conventions, accordion events and ethnic celebrations.

Publications include several books of instruction and music, as well as CDs and cassettes of both established tunes and his own originally composed and arranged accordion music. These many years of experience have produced a competent, skilled, dedicated, multi-cultural accordionist.
