Hiring costs for session accordionists can vary depending on factors such as experience, location, and project complexity. On average, studio accordion sessions can range from $100 to $300 per hour. Freelance accordionists may charge hourly rates or flat fees per project, with prices varying widely based on skill level and demand. At Musiversal, we offer a subscription model that provides unlimited sessions with our roster of world-class accordionists at a fixed monthly rate, making premium accordion tracks more accessible and affordable than ever.
During a remote accordion recording session, our experienced session accordionists will work closely with you over livestream to bring your musical vision to life. After discussing the details of your project and musical preferences, the accordionist will lay down tracks that align with your vision. They can sight read and/or improvise, and you'll have the opportunity to provide feedback and request adjustments, between takes - live and in real-time, to ensure that the recording meets your expectations. Our session accordionists are highly efficient and can typically deliver multiple takes within the allotted session time, ensuring that you have plenty of options to choose from.
After your remote accordion recording session, you'll receive lossless audio files encompassing every recorded take. Additionally, you'll receive individual stem files captured from each microphone in the accordionist's studio, giving you maximum flexibility and control over your recordings. Should you require assistance with tasks such as comping, time-alignment tuning, editing, mixing, or mastering, these services are readily available and included as part of the Musiversal subscription, ensuring a seamless and comprehensive music production experience.
To ensure a successful remote accordion session, it's essential to provide the accordionist with all the necessary information and materials in advance. Be sure to share details about your project, including the genre, tempo, key, and any specific musical ideas or preferences you have. Additionally, provide any demo tracks, reference recordings, chord charts or sheet music that will help guide the accordionist during the session. Clear communication is key, so don't hesitate to reach out to the accordionist with any questions or concerns before the session begins. Furthermore, we highly recommend you to think about what you’re looking to get out of your session (what is it that you want the musician to play?) so you can direct the musician before and between each take, during the livestream, to give you exactly what you came for.
At Musiversal, we're dedicated to recruiting the top accordion talent from around the world. Our rigorous recruitment process ensures that only the most skilled and experienced accordionists make it onto our roster.

With Musiversal, you can trust that you're working with some of the best accordion talent in the industry.
