Cajun Accordion (KNIRI TUNING) Hohner One Row, Melodeon, Alternate Tuning “Blues Oergeli”

The accordion (Hohner 1 Row 114 C) shown in the video,
has a special circular tuning “in the circle of 5th”, *Kniri Tuning 221*
I came up with some alternative tunings for diatonic Accordions. The one row Cajun-Accordions do usually have the ‘Richter’ tuning.
I was looking for an easier way to play the Blues with the common three chords (C, F and G7 in the key of C). After playing around for some time I found a continuous mathematical scale (“221″ Scale) for diatonic Instruments with 10 Buttons. This means that the notes do always have the same steps(221221221221…..2=wholetone, 1=halftone) This allows to play on the same Instrument 5 different Major and Minor scales and 16 different triads, which are related/similar to the circle of fifths.

A more detailed description of this alternate accordion tunig system can be found at

Das “Bluesörgeli” mit “221″ Tuning,hat eine von mir entwickelte Tonanordnung (“221″ Skala), mit der man auf demselben 10-Knopf- Accordion identische Melodien in verschiedenen Tonarten spielen kann, das heisst in 5 Dur- und 5 Molltonarten über mehr als 1 Oktave.
Es sind zudem 16 verschiedene Dreiklänge im Quintenzirkel möglich, immer 3 Töne nebeneinander liegend.
