I own a concertina that belonged to my grandfather, I am wanting to learn to play it, but I realized that it is a little different, there are 19 buttons, I'm not sure how much the brand, the only thing is a (emblem?) written "Steel Voices (Vozes de aço)" .


Can anyone help me identify it? There is some method to learn how to play it?

I'm putting some pictures. It is very old and needs repairs.

I did not find much information on the inside. Only: G(maybe C) D - GG - 1955.


I'm sorry for my bad english.

Since wat you have is not a concertina but a melodeon (bisonoric button accordion), you will get better advice at melodeon.net.

 

Good luck with the instrument and learning how to play it!

That is what we here know as a "melodeon", so you should follow Wolf's advice. You'll get much better help at melodeon.net. But you're not to be blamed for calling it a "concertina". In Portugal -- so also in Brazil? -- it is called a "concertina".

Here it has many names, including: Concertina, Cordeona, Pé-de-Bode, Oito Baixos, Botoneira, Sanfona, Acordeon and other regional names.
