Chapter 20 now released, is titled: Other Arm/Hand Conditions Which Affect Playing Your Accordion.

John Bonica writes: “There are many medical conditions that can affect your ability to play your accordion both mechanically and neurological.”

The chapter ends with the advice: “Finally I cannot stress strongly enough the importance of not ignoring pain, numbness, tingling or weakness in your extremities. Seek medical help and advice sooner rather than later.”

A teacher wrote: “I’m busy reading the book of John Bonica and I find absolutely interesting the information over the working of our mechanisms and the patologies from the medical point of view of an expert. From this point of view I really find this work important for the accordion community.

I’m an Italian classical accordionist based in Belgium and also accordion teacher. Luca Pignata”
