    The modern one row melodeon is most closely related to the original 1829 patent for the accordion by Cyrill Demian in Vienna. The layout is very similar to a diatonic harmonica that plays one key in a bi-sonoric manner. Due to the small, lightweight size of the instrument it traveled all over the world but is most popular in Cajun, French Canadian, and Irish traditional music.

      I’m over here trying to see the difference between my 34 button 3 row vs simple 1 row.
      Materials on this one look more reinforced since you only play a button at a time

    Okay, now I'm just confused. The accordion I just got (it was my grandpa's and was from Russia) seems to be the opposite... It's like the chord resolves when I pull the accordion, not when I push it. What's up with that?

    Diatonic does not mean that you get different notes by pulling and pushing. It means that the instrument is tuned to a specific scale (mostly the good old major scale) instead of having access to all 12 semitones.

    • @Blokfluitgroep
      @Blokfluitgroep Рік тому +1

      You are totally right. At least for flutes, Most of the time, in the accordion universe diatonic instruments also have the "feature" of different notes by pulling and pushing, but there are some exceptions: the english concertina and the bandoneon are chromatic, but still give other notes for pushing and pulling.

    • @user-jl9kw9gn3m
      @user-jl9kw9gn3m 6 місяців тому

      he said key feature of a diatonic accordion is ponic on the push and zonanant on the pull.
      can't you hear too good ?

      ​@@user-jl9kw9gn3myes, and that's wrong. Diatonic means: one scale and no extra accidentals . Not to be confused with bisonoric.

    Do conflicts ever arise between pulling the bellows out (for volume\air control) and getting the correct note to sound? (Don't have that issue with the piano accordion).

    Diatonic does *not* mean you get different sounds on push and pull. It only means the instrument is tuned for a single key. Bisonoric means you get different notes on push and pull.

      @@user-jl9kw9gn3m Did you watch the beginning of the video? At the 0:09 mark, they say "the word 'diatonic accordion' means that you get different sounds pushing and pulling the same button", which is wrong. The actual definition of "diatonic accordion" is an accordion which only has notes in a diatonic scale, as opposed to a chromatic scale. Most diatonic accordions are also bisonoric, but that's not a requirement.

    Diatonic doesn’t mean two notes on each button. The term is bisonoric.
    Diatonic accordions just happen to be bisonoric while chromatic accordions are unisonoric

      @Blokfluitgroep Рік тому +1

      Is there a difference? I mean: wouldn't be the C major accordion the same as an A minor accordeon, since both have the same notes: CDEFGAB? The same holds for G/Em or F/Dm?

    Just pick it up and play around with it. It will come (did for me). Especially if you can knock a tune out of a harmonica. If you dont use the thumb strap ,you'll need a strap over your shoulder .
