Anthony Mecca, native of Waterbury,
Conn ., came by his love

Decision
to make the accordion

brought him to
New York where he furth ered and complet ed his studies with Joe Biviano, well known accor dion virtuoso an d instructor.
Aft er his discharge
from th e a rm y in 1946, Tony Mecca turned
his atte ntion to professional
playing and soon was in great demand for
r.:adio and television famous conductors
work and recordings.
He has worked under such

It is this background
to write this important
of s tudy and experie nce that enables him
