Hello Again
That is a nice photo. I see an electric organ in the background. I played the organ for many years, and still have one in my parlor. Are you Hispanic? We have a lot of activites that are Hispanic oriented both music and dance.

Thanks for your "introduction" to the TAN!
I am German/Czech so I enjoy the Polkas and Waltzs of my youth. I am married to a Hispanic (from Laredo). He is the reason I have this accordion and inspires me to continue my accordion lessons from Debra Peters. I need to add more of the Hispanic culture's music to my play list. Hispanics are as passionate about their music as we are to our Polkas! Other than that...I really like the 60's & 70'$ music.
See ya in Dallas!

I have a German music booklet that I prepared for the accordion convnetion last year. Also a Spanish booklet from a few years ago. I also have a mariachi ensemble here in Killeen and have had a mariachi teachning weekend for the last ten year, so I have a fair amount of mariachi sheet music, etc. If you bring a flash drive and/or SD memory card, I can give you some Hispanic music at the convention. Also you can join our folk band on Friday and Saturday. We are including some Hispanic/German/Czech music/dances. See you are the convention.

Hello

Here is the one of the booklets for the NAA convention session on a folk dance band for dancing. It includes a few Mexican songs/dances and also a few German songs/dances, that we will learn. There are six others practicing these songs at present. The booklet will be updated soon with some minor changes. If you send a mailing address, I will send you a SD memory card in the USPS containing the updated booklet and audio files. We will also have audio backup tracks available at the session.
