Has to be pipe and tabor.

The 3-hole pipe is not that easy to learn, though if you can play whistle, you have a good start. Then you have to co-ordinate it with the tabor.

I tried once, but the domestic authorities objected (I was outvoted 2 to 1)

Failing that has to be fiddle which surprisingly, does not seem to have been mentioned yet.

If you are going for Melodeon, get an "in your face" one like a Hohner Pokerwork. They may not be the most fashionable these days, but they have plenty of volume.
