The accordina is a French wind and free reed instrument invented and originally built in Paris by A.Borel around 1950-1960.
It combines the sound of chromatic harmonica with the logical and comfortable keyboard of button accordion (Italian system).
The instrument had little success among musicians when it was made, the accordion being more suitable for the music played at that time. Nowadays however musicians, especially jazz accordion players appreciate it more and more for the great expressive possibilities.
This wonderful modern example is made in France by master maker Joseph Carrel.
This is a second hand example in mint condition, hardly used at all. It is a C system, with marked C's to help you find your way around the keyboard.
Comes complete with a hard case
