Concertina buttons are diatonic, meaning each one produces a distinct note when the bellows are either pulled or pushed, making playing much simpler than with other instruments; but it may take time before mastering them fully.
C/G
The Anglo concertina offers great value and makes an excellent entry-level instrument, being easy to play, reliable, and sounding superb.
C/G is a Major Key, with multiple chord tones which can serve as extensions or “flavors” of the “triad” chords shown above. For instance, G9 is an G7 chord with an additional A note added.
G/D

D/E
The Debt/Equity ratio (D/E ratio) is an often-used metric by investors and lenders to assess the risk associated with investing in a company. High values suggest that businesses may struggle repaying debts in times of economic downturn, leading to investor caution about investing in them.
A 30-key concertina offers more flexibility than its 20-key counterpart, thanks to the addition of additional accidentals on both sides and being fully chromatic in its range – meaning it can play music beyond C and G as its home keys.
F/A
The 30 Key Concertina boasts an extra row of accidentals for complete chromaticism. Additionally, this instrument features a C# note which is essential for playing tunes in D key.
There are still ways of playing music in D, but you might need to think outside the box in order to make it sound right. That is why some are opting to study on 20 key Lachenal or Jones instruments.
