FOREWORD
Gary's professional music career, lasting over six decades,
resulted in an impressive body of work including hundreds
of individual arrangements and ten eBook collections.
These popular arrangements are harmonically and
melodically correct, show the power and beauty of the
accordion, and will challenge the beginning, intermediate,
and advanced accordion players. Each of Gary's
arrangements came from his heart and offers a true
musical experience that should be encountered by anyone
who loves and enjoys playing the accordion!
Numerous requests from his students and members of the accordion community -- always
searching for high level professionally arranged piano accordion songs -- inspired Gary to
develop this library with a few simple goals:
• All arrangements are creative and harmonically correct.
• All arrangements contain a sensible degree of difficulty.
• All arrangements are enjoyable for you to play and therefore enjoyable to your
audience.
• Each song book is in a convenient and accessible PDF format.
Each song book is organized to provide a collection of arrangements that are similar by
theme, genre or type. This makes getting your favorite solos easy. Together these eBooks
represent a huge repertoire for the modern accordion player and are guaranteed to satisfy
even the most demanding audience.
DENNIS O’TOOLE
The artistic and easily read engravings throughout this book were provided by Dennis
O’Toole, a professional music engraver specializing in the accordion.
CONTENTS

This e-Book is a copyrighted work. You may print pages for your own use and may make
backup copies of the file also for your own use. It is a violation of federal law to
distribute this e-Book or any portion of it to others in any form, either printed or
electronic.
For best results: Use a 3-ring binder. 1. Print the Foreword and Contents pages. 2. Then print the front and
back covers with photo paper using the glossy side. 3. Print all of the song pages. 4. Hole punch the right
side of the song's first page and then the left side of the song's 2nd page so that both pages can be viewed
simultaneously ...then, if needed, hole punch the right side of the 3rd page so that pages 3 and 4 can be
viewed simultaneously and repeat depending on the length of the arrangement. Glue or use double stick
tape for pages 2 and 3 to attach back to back. Make sure the holes line up accurately when attaching.
Repeat the procedure depending on the length of the arrangement. You will then have a beautiful publisher
quality book when completed. :)
