Anglo concertina: 30 keys, C/G Custom accordion type steel reeds. Traditional hand rails. 6 fold bellows Wheatstone layout Tutor, especially written for this instrument It teaches the basics of playing concertina, music notation, rhythm, music theory, etc.. The tutor is suitable for both self study and for use in formal lesson. Gig bag The anglo concertina is a wonderful versatile instrument, that is relatively easy to learn and perfect for all kinds of folk music. Because of its small size it is very portable, and it blends perfectly with other instruments. The Rochelle has been developed especially for beginning anglo players. Although the instrument is perfectly capable of meeting the requirements of intermediate players, we understand that many players might want to upgrade to a vintage or new instrument later on. With this in mind, we made all the important features, such as keyboard lay out, spacing of the keys, key diameter, key travel (the height of the keys), number of bellows folds, etc. identical to traditional anglo concertinas, to assure a smooth transition to a higher class concertina later on. The Rochelle has a traditional riveted action. The action makes the instrument 'feel' much like a high priced vintage instrument. Sound Sample
