7 Ralf Brendle THE COMMITTMENT Andreas Nebl and the Hohner World Orchestra at Coupe Mondial in Shanghai 011 Students at the HOHNER Conservatory TO EXCELLENCE first choice in orchestras perfect for solo performers accustomed to the spotlight In accordion orchestras, the HOHNER Morino ensures a perfect ensemble sound. The consistency of the HOHNER tuning, which has remained constant for decades, is responsible for the legendary quality of the typical homogenous orchestra sound. Soloists love the characteristic sound of the Morino, whether performing alone or in a group. The powerful Morino sound is perfect for every stage situation and is equally at home in classical music, pop, rock or jazz. This legendary sound also owes a debt to the great pioneer of Oberkrainer music, Slavko Avsenik, whose playing technique on the Morino helped establish the Oberkrainer sound worldwide. Today a new generation of young musicians carries on his tradition and takes this music to new realms of success with the Morino. You will find the complete HOHNER accordion program in the HOHNER accordion catalogue at your specialist retailer.
