I have heard, and played with, a couple of really accomplished accordionists. But none have ever been able to make that left hand shake sound convincing above about 120 bpm. This guy had the same trouble. He is clearly a talented and skilled young man. But that left side of the squeezebox is too massive, and the reeds too slow of speaking, to get the kind of breathless tremble you can get with a tight string section. It sounds uncomfortable and awkward enough to spoil the whole effect.

If you know of any accordionist who can really do the shake, please let me know.
