Hello to all,
following the "Think of us" discussion available here:

http://www.partitions-accordeon.com/topic/title=pensez-%C3%A0-nous............./id=17959

The question was raised of creating score categories for new instruments (saxophone, violin, trumpet, Jew's harp, etc.).
As the title suggests, this is a referendum on whether or not it should be done.
I invite THE MAXIMUM number of people to have their say on the subject before March 1st. On that date, a decision will be made based on your opinion.

For those who don't read the forum, well... too bad for them, they just have to do it!

Thank you!

Good evening Slade, as a multi-instrumentalist myself, I can only say YES to the proposal.

Good evening Slade,
It's not a problem if it's manageable and well indexed.
You don't want to spend an inordinate amount of time looking for an accordion score and come across the guitar or sax version, which is unusable with an accordion.
Best regards

hi
how about keeping it SIMPLE?
why not "simply" have a section for "other instruments" (including voice) without any other cumbersome distinction, but in which the members concerned would find themselves?
my "multi-card" musical mood is of course entirely in favor of this little departure from the site's name, whose evolution we happily see every day
and Vive la Musique !!!

BonsoirYes!! why not!!! that would be nice, if .................. the deposit of scores is done in the right section ..................... See you at ............Good evening to allMuscicalementNadine
Good evening everyone

keyboardist and vocalist (my guitar has only 2 strings ....!)
I'm all for ...
I have sometimes uploaded scores for vocals and piano, and this is largely usable for an accordionist ... after that, it's not so complicated to transpose a Bb score for another instrument ... I wonder if some FREE sites don't do it?

There will always remain the delicate problem of classification: accordion or not, because it seems to me, in view of the site's name, necessary to limit the number of categories ... the genre section for accordion scores is already underfilled on PA !!!!
and even by genre: how many different genres to use, some songs, some rhythms are ambiguous or multiple ...

Finally, I agree with JJ ... !

MuZic@lement!

Hello everyone,

I'm personally only interested in accordion scores, but let's think about the others, since there are not only accordionists on the site. I'm in favor of a "Other instruments" category, as long as the scores are deposited in the right section.

Hello everyone,

yes for this idea, even if the site is stamped "Accordion" host scores for other instruments with a little order.

Sincerely

Bonjour: I'd say yes, and I think Jean-Jacques' idea is probably the right one!
anyway, notes are always notes, or else they're chord grids for guitarists or tablatures for diatos!

Good evening from Belgium,
personally, I think it's a great idea, but so as not to be too scattered I'd prefer a single heading for other instruments with a small note for guitar, sax .... I'm a guitarist, singer and I find my happiness in PA.

hello everyone scores for other musical instruments are useful for us and for our fellow musicians for example harp scores are totally adaptable to the accordion as well as the pianole classifying by instrument name would allow us a quick searchthank you for these good ideasmusicalement germinon

Hello


I am a saxophonist,
and I don't find it very useful to put it in another category;

if I play alone, the key doesn't matter to me because even for us it's easier to play with only a few diese or bémol.

when playing with others, I transpose either at sight or using my harmony assistant software

the only useful differentiation is whether the score includes chords or not, otherwise you'll soon find yourself with 50 scores for the same piece in all sorts of keys.


friendship to all

Hello,
Yes, it's not a bad idea. It would bring a plus to this forum.
Best regards.

So the survey is long over!
In view of the generally positive opinion, it's going to be done!
However, for the "other instruments" category, I see a problem that will arise very soon.
If you're looking for saxophone scores, for example, you'll have to go through all the "other instruments" scores.
I think it would be wiser to have one category per instrument, even if some of them are empty.

slade
12/03/2013
The categories have been implemented!
As in my previous post, I've created one category per instrument to make sorting easier.
The instruments currently available are :
chromatic accordion
diatonic accordion
bandoneon
saxophone
trumpet
violin
piano
guitar

à votre bon coeur m'sieur dames!

Hello Slade,

I'm surprised there isn't a chromatic bass category.
I had already mentioned the subject a few weeks ago on this site.
It's very different from standard basses and you can't play a "standard" score on chromatic basses (and lycée de versailles)!!!

Best regards

Hello,
no worries I'll add the category ;)

Thank you

This will undoubtedly make it easier to find one's way through the plethora of scores!
Quick question:
How are you going to manage the scores already sent???
A real Roman task!
I'd like to redirect the scores I've sent to the site, but I don't know if that's possible.
Best regards

Yves

If you can provide me with a list by private message of the scores you've already sent and the category they should be in and I'll change that.

Hello
this could be a good idea if you don't find just anything on it, but it must remain a priority site for accordion for some time now I can't find any scores classified as chromatic bass accordions for what reason???? c'est dommage cordialement

eh yes it's a pity but it's not your scores that will reverse the course of things (for info this site is a SHARING site)

Hello musician friends

I've noticed that for some time now, only accordion scores have been entering our favorite site in large numbers, and those of us who also love the accordion would like a little novelty in the variety register.
Hoping I haven't hurt anyone's feelings, thank you for thinking of us ....... (pianists, saxophonists and others ....).
Kind regards,

Daniel

hi Daniel
"remember!!!
there was talk a "while back" (I think at my instigation, no doubt nonsensical, the proof) of expanding to other instruments by creating an additional section, what a HORROR!!!!
An outcry from all the great X...... (read great posteurs) of the time, not always accordionists by the way, who screamed sacrilege before going to play elsewhere ;) look for the error !!!!
Brassens sings "ya des gens qui n'aiment pas que ..."
A vast question, Cindou11 is quite right, active members mainly own accordion scores, logically, often from the traditional musette domain, logically, and recent scores of "varied music" or variety are not running around.
But nothing prevents anyone from making specific requests, and you know perfectly well how to get in touch with me for targeted requests (and even to transpose for tenor sax if need be lol).
I'm always afraid of being too visible on P-A, and I wouldn't mind opening up to other styles, but it's not my tastes that come first, fortunately ;)
and what are the risks of asking? if you don't get the answers you want, it'll be like before, no worse!
good music
JJ

Bonjour à vous , je suis d'accord avec daniel 77 ,où sont donc passés tous ces membres qui nous mettaient des partitions plutôt
It's true that there have been changes for several months now, but I hope that we'll eventually find our way around...

Hello everyone!

Due to the positive feedback, I will share my alto and tenor sax scores with anyone interested.

Thank you and have a good evening.

Hello everyone

I am keyboard and choir oriented ...
It is true that the requests are more and more accordion oriented! But if someone is looking for a piece and I have vocals + piano, I'll post the piece anyway ...
Every musician (in general) knows how to read a score ... and for transpo, you learn to do it with the instrument (Bb or other).

I'm going to scan more of my scores (more keyboard than choral, which are often re-harmonized) ...

Bonne Musique à TOUS

Good evening daniel77,
I have nothing against the piano, nor the sax (I like it a lot, especially in jazz!) but this site is called partitions-accordéon!
so don't be surprised to find lots of accordion scores.
Have a nice evening!
Best regards
