This is a wonderful video, beautifully filmed and edited. We enjoyed watching such skilled people at work making superb instruments, and also listening to the very imaginative use of sound throughout. Thank you.
Una delle tante eccellenze italiane! Grazie.

Those who are making world's greatest hand-crafted instrument, salute all. Thanks for showing us this superb symphony.
Utterly mesmerising. See this before you buy and you'll never complain about the price of your instrument again. Such awesome skill and dedication.
Pigini make GREAT accordions. I've had mine for 30 years, played non stop . Emperor V model, largest piano accordion with quint freebass. It's still awesome and I've given it a real good thrashing too, still looks and sounds like new. Would love to bring it up to Pigini for a full service though one day. I was lucky enough to meet Massimo and Francesca (hope I spelt those right) when I last took it in 2001, hello from New Zealand to them :) Thank you for putting this great video online, I will get all my students to watch it too, one of them is currently waiting for his one coming from that very factory - exciting!. Actually if I lived in Italy I would love to work there! :)
This has to be one the most exhaustive videos done on accordion building. The Pigini is probably the finest built accordion today, alongside the Hohner Gola, or just under. Italy has a very long history of accordion building, that has never ceased to evolve. Italian instruments have their own sound- they are much more "woody" than their German counterparts. I would highly recommend a real amateur to take a trip to Castelfidardo, where they're all built. The big models shown in this video are the Bayan Serius III model. You'd have to sell your Chevrolet, Chrysler, Oldsmobile, and Toyota to afford it! A real beaute, but a fortune. My heart goes out to the Hohner Gola though ; it has NEVER ever been equaled in accordion history (at least twice the price!!). But they're both very top range and distinctly unique. Enough said
This was such a tremendous video complimenting the highly-skilled crafts people who assemble the accordion - "aka squeezebox" that I have been playing for 67 years thus far. Born in the Netherlands and moving to Ontario, Canada, I was introduced to the accordion at a home party at the age of 7. That Christmas, my parents surprised me with the 12-base instrument. i now have 3-120 base ones. Thanks for sharing for it truly demonstrates what we owe the inventors and skilled artists who put them together. Have a great 2021 enjoying the sweet sounds of this creative "wind" instrument!
There is also a problem with the high degree of skill and detail that goes into building one. The cost of an instrument will be prohibitive for people to buy it to try playing it. People often buy guitars or electronic pianos or flutes because they’re cheap and they want to give them a try. Because accordions are usually too expensive , especially the Italian ones, only people who can spare the money will buy it.
That`s a dream, I would love to have a Pigini accordion.
Pure art no Shity robots. Beautiful done thanks for sharing 🎉
Ohhhh my gosh my ancestors are singing :-) It is really magic Thank you to show it
beautiful documentary. I like that the soundtrack has no speaking - just music and the sounds of the workshop

Хороший фильм бесспорно. Я ещё хотел сказать что зря мы думаем что хороший инструмент дорого стоит, в этом фильме показано как не прост хороший инструмент в изготовлении, Спасибо всем мастерам которые этим делом занимаются!!! Процветания вашему производству.
Can not believe. Just can not believe.
My next accordion :) As You see, each part get kisses, touches. This is what You hear when You listen Pigini. And in the factory, just noise and music. Thank You for this video.
Love your description "each part gets kisses, touches" :) I will have to use it whenever I talk about production processes like this.
Bellisimo, mucha apreciacion por el arte de construcion de este bello instrumento. Me gusta pagini acordion.

Just plain old good work Brother. The topic, the sound track, the footage and most of all, the story. Thanks from Philadelphia.
Qué cosa bella, me hace bien ver este video!!!
Very nice video. This helps to appreciate what goes into making these wonderful instruments.
OMG THIS LANDSCAPE IS REALLY BEAUTIFUL
I already ordered my Bayan 58P convertor piano accordion. It will be finished on September. I can't wait!!! It's like a pregnancy, and I am watting for "my little baby".
How was it, have you put up a u tube video ?
Meraviglioso!!!!!!!!
G'day all you squeezers. Last year I had a week in Castelfidardo with a group of accordionists from the UK and had a guided tour around the Pigini factory and several other accordion makers. Best trip of my life! There is another tour planned for 2016 so if anyone wants details get in touch.
ES UNA ARTE MUY BELLA, DIOS LOS DE MUCHOS AÑOS DE VIDA.
Fantastico! Grazie infinite per il video! Io poi che suono la fisarmonica mi fa immensamente piacere...lavorano con tanta passione e professionalità!
Really an interesting video
Thanks Mattis for sharing
I wish there were documentaries on Excelsior, Giulietti, Sonola, and other brands during the “Golden Age” of accordion manufacturing.
Cody lives Excelsior was a fairly independent make. That means that they made most of the parts. Sonola was a Hohner subcontract- they had designed it in Germany, but had it assembled in Castelfidardo. Giulietti a loud mouth commercial salesman from Massachusetts. He had ALL his instruments built by Zero Sette (07) in good old Castelfidardo. An excellent firm who made very fine instruments indeed. However, in that town everybody works for everybody. Even Pigini buys parts from other firms, like the reeds for example. A fascinating place to visit- nearly two hundred years of tradition, and also research.
This video is of outstanding quality, thank you
yes! I agree, the quality of this video is so great. Must be made by an artist and certainly a musician. Even tallented as are all the people you see working with an incredible precission...
5:09 MISTRZOSTWO ŚWIATA !!! SUPER !!! PERFEKCJA !!!

Um fabuloso PIGINI CONVERTOR 55/P Deluxe
yes very nice video pleace make more videos. grazie
Muito legal !! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
And no, the technician is not smelling the accordion or checking for stray noises. He's using his face to feel for air leaks.
incredibile
muito bonita essa história de amor
21:53 This is a Chromatic Bandoneon, it's Unisinoric meaning you get the same pitch on the In & the Out. It's in a C System like the Chromatic Button Accordion.
I didn’t really knew those existed but that’s pretty cool
@@joaquinflores3547 They should make more of em again because Accordionists can double on Bandoneon plus it's so cute.
@@RockStarOscarStern634 that is true now I’m thinking of buying one of those would be nice to have one
@@joaquinflores3547 They're working on it & the Bandoneon Adrian is a great instrument that sounds great w/ singing. They should make a Triple Reed Model complete w/ registers for more versatility:czcams.com/video/I3t9ut7HUXg/video.html plus what's more fun than playing Trumpet Echo Polka on the Bandoneon, or even so Beer Barrel Polka on Bandoneon. Listen to this:czcams.com/video/QMaA7yO2MbM/video.html
@@RockStarOscarStern634 wow I will have to check this out then
Vielen Dank für dieses informative Video. Es veranschaulicht sehr gut die vielen einzelnen Schritte welche gemacht werden müssen um es uns Akkordeonisten zu ermöglichen den Instrumenten schöne Töne (hoffentlich) zu entlocken.
Außerdem war die zu Beginn des Videos gezeigte liebliche Landschaft südlich von Ancona für mich eine schöne Erinnerung an meine vielen Reisen nach Ancona.
Grazie per averci donato questo documento audiovisivo. L' Italia, una delle nazioni che produce le fisarmoniche più rinomate nel mondo e che non dimentica il passato, essere proiettati nel futuro è fondamentale, il prestigio si conquista col duro lavoro e la passione.
2:14, best music on video
Super Video !
gruss
Karl-Heinz
é muito bacana isso
Assistindo a este vídeo, alguém ainda não entendeu por que um acordeon custa caro?
Девочки молодцы
I feel like the workers need a documentary it’s self
Que complicado es de hacer un acordeon.Felicidades.
Schön
Gruß aus Wien
bravisssimo pleace make more video how to repair de fisamonica. garzie
At 2:14 is Čačak kolo from Serbia.
dallapé stradella 👍👍
I know it’s very fascinating how much craft, work, and tradition goes into making an accordion. BUT in some way this is also a source of it’s possible downfall. It makes the instrument prohibitively expensive for most people so people choose to play cheaper instruments which they can replace.
Ainda existe essa fábrica?.....
Instrumento caríssimo porém vale muito a pena
Das ist Handwerks-Kunst!
Bem bom
Arte degli artigiani quanto lavoro di precisione per produrre 1na fisarmonica altissimo livello di meccanica e sonorità cn numerose voci ecc.
Интересно
14:50 have they ever tried placing LED fiber optic fabric on this section to create a lighted bellows?
kalite akordenlar
Мне тоже было интересно
awesome doco thank you so much for this insight into what happens from the beginning. i would love to know what types of materials are used. The type of tree and polymer resin for the casing
thank you again
Yes, interesting. I've never considered what type of wood is used. My cheapo 80 year old German accordion looks like it was made from plywood !
Korkeatasoisia harmonikkoja :)
Ako se ne varam ovde se leoo čuje zvuk usne harmonike a basovi su sa velike harmonike.Veoma lepa kombinacija.Pretpistavljam jer ja sviram usnu harmoniku i to mi ne može promaci.E kada bi ove italijanske fabrike pravile i usne cromstske i tremolo to bi tek bilo nešto sigurno nevidjeno.
ah... If people only talked less, world would be such a more serene plece... The sounds of the music and the tools is such refreshing compared to having poeople talking trash over you all the time. This video is a proof over and over again that talk is cheap.
ya man, I hear ya. wish I could get a job there.
No noisy pop radio in the background like many workplaces these days !
After so many tweaks and infinite adjustments. I wonder how stable the instrument is? How often do you have to clean and lube this Chinese puzzle???
How much do these things cost?
é muito difícil fazer uma acorden. parabens
20.45 показана какая должна быть компрессия!
I want to repair my Accordion pigini in việt nam!
Od 2,5 minute je srpsko kolo.
Hi, what on earth is the square instrument at 22 minutes with 6 rows of buttons in the right hand?
It's a bandoneon - a type of concertina made famous by the Argentinian player and composer Astor Piazzolla.
ULISSES
9:43 Where is that Reed plate from?
Quantos quilos pesa ??
27022016: Méthodes de travail digne d'une autre époque, du bricolage de luxe, c'est pas pour moi.
What kind of (black) glue is that woman using for buttons on 19:20 ?
some modern type of mastic I guess, who knows ?
I need 1 set Accordians reed How much prise 1 set Accordians reed .please telling me sir

Интересно, я один из русско-говорящих смотрел это видео)
Нас двое! )))))
Уже трое
Нет, не один, я тоже хочу модернизировать свой инструмент в домашних условиях, за дешево :) Вот собираю инфу :)
я тоже смотрю
Are Russian accordions any good? I mean, no doubt the Italian and German ones are gonna be great. But I've seen some classical players playing Russian accordions. How do these measure up to the Italian and German ones?
Andrew Piatek Russian are better because the reeds are all mounted in the same reed plate. Italian/German made accordions use individual reed plates for each tone. The harmonics are better on the individual plate, richer tone and bass
Oh, yes indeed. Russian Bayans (Jupiter brand) are the best in the world, in my opinion. Also the most expensive.
MrMinathecat Jupiter has the best sound. but italians have better mechanisms, registers, silent bass buttons, and more things.
There is a vídeo where a guy puts Jupiter reeds on a Vignoni accordion, it's the best combination ever
Andrew Piatek russian accordion is for nothing
Thank you, I always wondered if someone had done that, and if not, why not.
How mach cost Pigini??
