how to reduce the vocal volume from accompaniment music so I can hear the accompaniment music better. Also, can I separate the accompaniment parts and put them in their own track?

Not easily.
Since vocals are usually panned to the center you can sometimes invert and sum the stereo tracks to suppress the vocal. But often lead instruments are panned to the center and will get suppressed, too. And it won't work on tracks like the Beatle's Revolution #9 where the vocals aren't panned to the center.
In any case, Garageband can't do this, you would need to use something like Audacity.

Well that is good to know. I won't knock my head against the wall trying to make it work. So, thank you for your frank reply.
