A shout out to any of my musicologically endowed friends: Do you know the name of the genre of French music usually played on the accordion, usually minor key, and often in 3/4 time, to which much of the Amelie soundtrack belongs? Is this even a genre?

I forgot to mention that l'absente is also a good album for "sad accordion-like music" But you will recognize some titles that were used for amelie. But he really is amongst one of my favourite composers!
