This technique is not found by coping other instruments such as the organ or keyboard but through the development of the nature of the instrument. This means that the Bandoneon has a technique that is independent of any genre. Not many people know that the instrument was constructed in Germany and some people even say it was supposed to be used as an portable organ.
