Thread Name: Why a melodeon?
Subject: RE: Why a melodeon?
Marje,In france it is the accordion diatonique,neither is it called a melodeon in Germany and Italy.
a single row instrument,is called a Melodeon[in Ireland] when it comes to competitions, to differentiate it from the two row diatonic accordeon.personally I prefer the Irish name The Gadget.DickMiles
