Accordion and music composing

Since a long time ago I’ve been a fan of They Might be Giants, who use a lot of acoordion arrangements in ther songs, and also I come from a folclorist family that used to play a lot in parties and concerts. That’s why I wanted to get an accordion.

My accordion since 2009 is a gift chosen my my great aunt Leyla, who was a music and arts teacher. From 2022 to 2024 I took lessons on the Instituto Chileno del Acordeón with Manuel Bustamante. Since I live in México, I go play some songs to the grave of my wife’s grandparents for Dia de Muertos.

I took a course in music composition with Meni Louit between 2025 and 2026.

Repertoire

I can play the following songs

• Beer Barrel Polka
• El Gorro de Lana
• El Viejo lobo chilote
• Alejandra (Waltz)
• Cielito Lindo
