This page gathers a structured collection of bandoneón learning resources, designed to guide the student from the very first steps to a solid intermediate level. It includes keyboard diagrams of the main bandoneón systems—both widely used layouts and less common but musically relevant ones—as well as visual schemes to clarify the instrument’s internal logic.
Since each button produces different notes depending on the bellows direction, the bandoneón requires the player to internalize multiple keyboard maps at once, and these materials aim to make that process clearer and more intuitive.
Alongside the diagrams, you will find a progressive series of preparatory study materials, organized as My 1st Year with Bandoneón and My 2nd Year with Bandoneón. The goal is to offer a focused learning path: once this foundation is in place, the student can move on to more advanced repertoire available in the Scores section.
If you find these materials useful, you are welcome to support my work. You can do so through a voluntary donation on Ko-fi, or by becoming a patron on Patreon. These contributions help me dedicate time to studying, researching, and creating new resources, while keeping this project independent and continuously evolving.
