Description
Specification

The accordina is a French wind and free reed instrument invented and 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.

Available in both B and C system you can blow through the side mouth piece. The option of a hose and mounting points allows you to wear the accordina on a strap.

44 button range
Single reed
B system or C system
Available with mouthpiece or extension hose
Complete with fitted hard case

Is this available in BCC#? With diatonic keys? Thank you

Hello

Many thanks for your.

An accordina only sounds in one direction, when you blow. So I'm afraid it cannot offer a diatonic keyboard.

If you have any other questions please don't hesitate to ask
