[Tango-L] Bandoneones -- smaller instruments being made for little hands

[Igor Polk]

Christian,
What are you talking about !
I see your sarcasm.

But what happens with all those "bandoneon trophies"?

They dust on the shelves in reach houses in nobody-knows what cities in US,
like in a house of my friend !
They do not even read Tango-L and they do not go to dancing any more to be
able to hear the slogan to return bandoneons to musicians.

This would be very bad news if Doble A's will go away as tourist trophies!
Let's hope that these Doble A's will be in the hands of enthusiastic
bandoneon players around the world ... to be played on!!!
