What is ConcertinaXL-Anglo Concertina? ConcertinaXL is a virtual Anglo Concertina app that allows users to play the instrument using the same fingerings as the real instrument. It is based on a common modern variant of the standard Jeffries layout and is commonly used for playing traditional Irish dance tunes. The app is bisonoric, meaning the instrument plays a different note for each button depending on whether you are pushing or pulling on the bellows. It is perfect for someone interested in the Anglo Concertina to have an experience of playing the instrument and become familiar with the button layout without the expense of purchasing a real concertina.
