CONCERTINA (Anglo, English & Bandonion): ED&S Mag 45/2 Summer 1983 p4 Article by Pat Robson: General historical survey of inventions - The English Concertina, invented and patented by Charles Wheatstone, is fully chromatic, each button producing the same note in both directions. Gordon used to sit by the radio and join in whenever he could, something that would not be easy with an Anglo-German concertina which is limited to certain musical keys. The Anglo-German, on the other hand, like a mouth-organ, is diatonic, having two notes to each button, one on the squeeze-in or push, and the other on the pull. The instrument is limited by having only two keys with only a few extra chromatic choices. The English instrument provides an easy opportunity for making use of chordal accompaniment, as, for example, with the final notes of the tune.
