ONE ROW MELODEONS

Free Reed Instruments > Melodeons> One Row Melodeons
One row melodeons are used for cajun music, played in the same style as a blues harmonica. They are also popular in the British Isles played straight along the row. The stops (2, 3 or 4 usually) each switch a set of reeds on or off. We've also got some massively popular toy melodeons for children.
