![]() The C and G rows of buttons on an Anglo-German concertina have identical intervals. For example, alternating C and C Major while playing melody on the C row. This method involves playing a complete melody with the right hand, while the left hand plays alternating bass notes and chords to suit the melody. Very full sound is produced with chords involving three or more notes. When only two notes are played at any time, they are not strictly chords. People trained in piano or accordion may prefer repetitive 'Oom Pah' style left hand bass, found in rhythmic play. This method involves learning the sequence of key strokes for both hands. Duet play was seen in hymns, and anthems, such as arrangement of 'God Save The Queen' in Sedgwick's 1865 manual, but many later manuals show only melodic play.Īnother example is "Only a Pansy Blossom" 1888 by Frank Howard seen ] ![]() The complexity of learning these combinations can be daunting. Involves playing one or more notes with each hand simultaneously with each bellows action. Using this technique allows the three F# notes to be use as accidentals. This type of play is often heard in association with other melodic instruments played presto (160bpm), such as tin whistle or fiddle. This may sound easy, but in fact can be the hardest to learn, as melodic tunes are often played very rapidly. Play involves memorizing the sequence of bellows action as well as the location of buttons corresponding to the notes. Taking advantage of the three octaves to play a single note, at a time, over a wide range. This method works better for concertina than accordion (Bass button rows slant the wrong way on accordion) In practise, left handed people sometimes invert the concertina and play treble with dominant left hand. In this article, the right hand refers to the treble notes, left hand refers to the bass notes. For example, an Irish folk player may thrown in occasional chords, for emphasis. In practise, most concertina players will blend methods of play to suit the occasion. There are several ways to play the concertina. Unlike harmonica, it allows the operator to sing at the same time. The advantage of the concertina is that it provides both melody and harmony, in an affordable portable instrument. If one wanted to play 'serious' music with more range and subtlety, one might select a less convenient instrument with more buttons and bigger bellows. Many designs are found, but most contemporary manufacturers follow the C/G anglo-German pattern pictured. There are several different patterns of systems of concertina and accordion. An extra extra button plays notes above or below the octave. This gives the instrument a complete octave for either hand. The concertina was developed before the accordion, to compete against reed organs which appeared about the same time, with similar reed technology.
