[Hawaiianon]

What instrument is playing at :07 seconds?

[avusligatus]

@Hawaiianon Bandoneon?

[Hawaiianon]

@avusligatus Thanks

[MICHKAC]

@avusligatus More likely chromatic harmonica. I don't know if this is the same recording, but he made one of this piece with the harmonicist George Fields.

@MICHKAC Michkac thanks for your comment, and yes it is well possible because this piece comes from the reccord with the harmonicist George Fields. On the cover I thought of seeing Bandoneon.. Thanks for the comment.
