Hohner Pokerwork is definitely my favourite here, both their tone and appearance are very charming, I also really like the Albrecht One-Row. your playing was ace btw
No wonder you love the Bafetti and the Oakwood: the two back to back near the end are head and shoulders above any of the rest (I'll ignore the single-row instruments - they're almost a different species!)
Wow..man..that was amazing beutiful.i love it how you played on all these melodeons..great artist..bravooo..❤❤❤❤👌👌👌👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Brilliantly played, Anahata - as always. What better way to compare and contrast. Carry on squeezing!
I know someone who has one of those toys, kudos for managing. 😂
Fascinating, Anahata. Quite a collection of boxes. All the best, and thanks for your posts. They are always keenly enjoyed here.
Great to hear you again! Lovely playing, but that Oakwood - still the finest I've ever, ever heard. The articulation is simply amazing - wonderfully played, but it must be a great thrill to know that the 'box will respond!
Brilliant playing
Outstanding !!
How interesting. Thank you.
Still one of my favorites! Love your stuff, thanks for making these

I love the sound of the second Honer in C what give it that extra breathy bass sound compared to the previous one?
That was lovely and amazing. I liked #10 and #11 best, I think.
Not surprising that they're Anahata's two regulars :-)
Impressed with many here. The Oakwood's articulation as previous commenter marsvitor2 said is quite nice. I really like that old subtle mussette on the Hohner Viktoria. You (Anahata) have a great touch and sympatico with that box and its sound, though not "The Best" ... it just has that quality that makes it special. Also fond of the swing tuning on the #5 Baffetti and the warm sound of the Hohner melodeons.
I have a little one with seven buttons which I am learning to play. Now I know there's a good tune I can learn.
fascinating
BRAVO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wunderbar *******
Mui.bien.Amigo.

Hohner Polkerwork D & G... That's my baby. :)
interesting to hear what different melodeons sound like, i consider getting one as i'm currenly only playing the piano accordion and i want to know if i maybe should learn melodeon or button accordion too
Would love to get a meledon to learn to play wonder where and one that’s not expensive
Get a small child's size to learn the basics that's what I am doing.
So I can play sloe on a seven button one that's great news.
Lovely video. I must caution you though, that thirteen is considered unlucky by some, so I'd advise the purchase of another box, which will give the equivalent of 2 sevens. ;>)
Three sevens would be even more magic. I'd better go shopping. I may be some time...
Seriously, I didn't actually know how many I had in the house until I made that video. There's a Saratovskaya Garmoshka grinning at me from the shelf too, but I can't handle all the pushes and pulls being the opposite way round...
How different is each melodeon in terms of note placement and playing? Was it easy for you to acclimate yourself to each one?
Amazing! Brilliant! Is it possible to get a score for piano?
The melody is widely available, e.g. at www.folktunefinder.com/tunes/27791 (look for other versions there too) For piano, you'll have to make up your own accompaniment.
@@anahatamelodeon Thanks a lot! I do love
your work. My compliments.
I thought you might play them all at once like Roland Kirk with his horns.
Now there's an idea. Playing them all in the same key would be a bit of a challenge.
This is great ... whats your name? Do you publish CDs/Downloads?? Thank you so much ....
+Keith Archer My name is Anahata! See www.maryanahata.co.uk and www.treewind.co.uk for CDs of my music (with Mary Humphreys) and some I've recorded of other musicians and singers. But you'll find most solo melodeon stuff on my UA-cam channel.
Im looking to buy a hohner 1 row but i cant really find any on sale, how'd you get yours?
They appear on eBay sometimes. Best to try some of the repairers/sellers in the list here: forum.melodeon.net/index.php/page,shops_repairers.html - Acorn Instruments, Lester Bailey, Mike Rowbotham, Rees Wesson, Theo Gibb and Martyn White are all recommended (I know them personally) if you are in the UK. From that link, you could join the forum and read or post in the "Buy and Sell" section too.
@@anahatamelodeon I live in california, the southern part of california so melodions arent really common here
Why do you put pegs on your stops?
Also the first Dino was my favourite!
To hold them up. They tend to slip down during playing.
stare in his face, not accordions for full effect :D
Best comment by far!
I noticed. am I safe watching this video lol
