Thanks Murathan! We’ve talked a lot about these three “sanfoneiros” masters of the northeast Brazil forró/sertanejo music. I believe that of the 3, Oswaldinho is still with us. Anyway, it’s cool to see the three of them together and reflect upon the fact that accordion music is alive and well and actually popular in some countries. For a contemporary sound, here’s a random sanfoneiro (Aurilio do acordeon) in Fortaleza, one of the hotbeds of the nordeste sound. I play the first song (“White Dove” in English) at the farmers market to the amazement of the Brazilians who come in the summer to work at one of the area farms.

Thanks there are easier styles in South America too. To some nations, learning music is a must for kids, balkan gypsies for example. It is an option at hand, you can be a musician or get another job, but you can make money on music whenever needed. Something like a family tradition.

True!

While we were hanging with toys, they were playing music with real instruments. Thats also another big gap in Turkey. People learn singing at least in churches. We dont have that and also music education is weak in schools, sometimes (around %50) they dont place music and painting teachers in government schools.
