abilities, combined with the highest level of
skilled craftsmanship, laid the foundation for
HOHNER‘s most successful accordion series.
Even though materials and manufacturing
technologies which he could only have
dreamed of are now being used to make
these instruments, his spirit lives on in every
Morino built today.

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.
