==== Chemnitzer concertina ==== {{main article|Chemnitzer concertina}} [[File:Concertina (1.1), Acervo do Museu do Colono (Santa Leopoldina).jpg|thumb]] Various German concertina systems share common construction features and core keyboard layout. In the United States, particularly in the [[Midwest]] where there are many German and Central European descendants, the term ''concertina'' often refers to the [[Chemnitzer concertina]], which is bisonoric and closely related to the [[bandoneon]], but features a different keyboard layout and decorative style, including a few mechanical innovations pioneered by German-American instrument builder and inventor [[Otto Schlicht]].<ref name="Worrall2009-vol2">{{cite book|author=Dan Michael Worrall|title=The Anglo-German Concertina: A Social History|volume=2|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=JKZO1aevsiIC|date=1 January 2009|publisher=Dan Michael Worrall|isbn=978-0-9825996-1-7}}</ref>{{rp|204}} A related variant is the [[Carlsfelder concertina]] from [[C.

Zimmerman]], created in 1849<ref name="Worrall2009-vol2"/>{{rp|1}} and shown at the [[The Great Exhibition|1851 London Industrial Exposition]].<ref>{{cite book|title=Tango: Geschichte und Geschichten|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=gfvfAAAAMAAJ|year=1999|publisher=Deutscher Taschenbuch|isbn=978-3-423-24182-3|page=74}}</ref> The Chemnitzer concertina is popular among [[polka]] musicians in the American Midwest, most famously played by [[Walter Jagiello|Li'l Wally]].
