Video: George Secor plays “Misty” on the Moschino free bass accordion

Accordionist George Secor sadly passed away in March. George performed regularly in the USA and was a guest at the 2015 National Accordion Association Convention in Plano, Texas where he skillfully demonstrated the Moschino free bass system. His classical training was clearly evident in his performance and he had switched to the Moschino free bass system in 1961.

At the convention he also took part in the Arlyn Visentin’s 15 Minutes of Fame, and performed Prelude & Fugue in C Minor, The Holy City and Canzone per Sonare No. 2 (in duo with Bob Mansfield) at the Saturday evening concert.

He will be sadly missed.
