Milano Organetto left & right hand note charts

[Gatorcheesehead]

Hi everyone,

I recently acquired an older Milano Organetto accordion.

I'm trying to find left hand and right hand note charts/diagrams, and can't find any. It seems like there are a lot of charts for different patterns of right hand notes but not this set up.

I have found 8 and 12 bass charts for left hand but not 16.

Do you have any ideas where I could find this?
Or maybe I am missing or misunderstanding something about this accordion?

Thank you

Wow that looks familiar. Where did you find it?

Even though it says organetto, could it actually be a stradella bass?

You'll probably have to make your own chart using a tuner or tuner app.

Good luck!

Thank you! That kind of sounds like a fun project. Do you have recommendations for a tuner or tuner app that would be good to use?

Hey Gator, I use an android app called "piano tuner" on my phone. There are many out there that will detect the note you are playing. Then you can tell what notes are being played on the push and pull. Good luck!

Great. Thank you again!
