The Bandoneon’s Range of Notes

The bandoneon captivates with its compact form, concealing a surprising range: in the 33/38 Rheinische Tonlage, the bass side spans from C2 to B4 (3 octaves), while the melody side ranges from A3 to B6 (another 3 octaves). The extensions of both sides slightly overlap, resulting in an impressive total range of nearly 5 octaves.
