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.

PREFACE

This e-Book is a compilation of the twenty most popular

accordion arrangements from the Gary Dahl – the Legacy Continues collection, including songs nominated by

convention attendees. It was prepared specifically for

the 2020 National Accordion Convention hosted in

Richardson, Texas by the National Accordion Association, Inc.

The Gary Dahl – the Legacy Continues organization curates the entire collection

of Gary Dahl’s solo arrangements. This collection is continuing to expand

thanks to the efforts of Tris Gour, who has provided three of the top 20 in this e-

Book.

A percentage of proceeds from all sales of this e-Book will continue to go to the

support of the NAA, whose fine work supports and motivates musicians to build

their accordion skills and encourages an appreciation of the accordion by the

general public.
