Abstract:

In this article we present Bandoneon 2.0, an interdisciplinary project whose main objective is to produce electronic bandoneons in Argentina. The current prices of bandoneons and the scarcity of manufacturers are endangering the possibility of access for the new generations to one of the most emblematic instruments of the culture of this country. Therefore, we aim to create an expressive and accessible electronic bandoneon that can be used in recreational, academic and professional contexts, providing an inclusive response to the current sociocultural demand. The project also involves research on instrument acoustics and the development of specialized software and hardware tools.
