AV |
Family of box-shaped bellows-driven free-reed aerophones. Played by compressing or

sound inside the body. Valves on opposing reeds of each note are used to make the
instrument's reeds sound louder without air leaking from each reed block. The performer
normally plays the melody on buttons or keys on the right-hand manual, and the accompaniment,
consisting of bass and pre-set chord buttons, on the left-hand manual.
