History

Klingenthal, a centre of music, is a small town in the

Saxon Vogtland region, directly bordering on Bohemia.
As early as the middle of the 17th century, instrument
makers settled down here, starting with violin makers
from Bohemia. Later, woodwinds and brasswinds were
also made here. In the 19th century, mouth organ ma-
king came to town and soon dominated the townscape
with a multitude of workshops. By the year 1840 or
thereabouts, this boom had turned Klingenthal into
Germany’s largest centre for the manufacture of mouth
organs. Production consolidation also had its benefits. More

The Weltmeister Cassotto combines all
the advantages of a cassotto accordion with
the lightweight body of a standard instru-
ment. At only 10.4 kg, the Cassotto is nearly
as light as the comparable Topas IV, but it has
the cassotto, which lends a different sound to

Weltmeister Children’s Accordion
Weltmeister from the very start
We’ve collaborated with music schools to develop a new accordion
that meets the needs of both early learners and their instructors.
As a successor of the ‘Mini’, the children’s accordion has a pleasant
rounded shape and features the same keyboard as its big sibling, the

FOLKLORE ACCORDIONS
Weltmeister Rubin, ensuring a comfortable playing experience.
The accordion features two tremolo-tuned treble reed ranks as well
as six bass tones and six major chords. The bass buttons are now
smaller and closer together, making them better suited for children’s
hands. These improvements will help lay the foundation for many
years of successful accordion playing.

The Weltmeister Perle is the smallest and
most lightweight Weltmeister accordion,
though it offers the same quality as its bigger
siblings. This is the perfect choice for those who
are looking for an affordable introduction to the
world of accordions and those who want a light

The orchestra instrument
The Weltmeister Topas is the big sister to the
beloved Weltmeister Achat. With 37 keys and 96
bass buttons, it offers a range that is well suited for
classical music. It has three treble reed ranks that lend
themselves well to musette, jazz and tango music, and
yet it remains relatively lightweight for an instrument
its size.
The Weltmeister Topas IV offers everything that a player’s
heart could desire in an instrument its size. It’s small and
compact yet has 37 keys and 4 treble reed ranks, leaving
little to be desired in terms of sound. The treble is comple-
mented by a powerful bass side that lays a solid foundation
with its deep tones.
Thanks to the high-quality keyboard that enables nuanced
playing, as well as the unique 120-button standard Welt­
meister bass mechanics, this is a beloved combo and
or­chestra instrument that’s very much at home in concert
halls.

PIANO ACCORDIONS
Wiener 86 w / Wiener 405
Small and stylish
The Weltmeister Wiener 86W is characterised by its attention to detail. The black box with
ornate gold embossing and curved grill give this small instrument a large amount of style. The
black lacquered grip, genuine leather thumb loop and gleaming corner protectors round off the
look of this elegant instrument. Its adjustable bass strap makes it suitable for hands both big and
small. Like all Weltmeister instruments, our smaller accordions are finely tuned with optimised

FOLKLORE ACCORDIONS
articulation. Thus, even our smallest instrument guarantees an enjoyable playing experience.
The difference between the Wiener 86W and the Wiener 405 is that the 86W comes in black with
elaborate gold embossing, while the 405 is available in pearloid colouring.

The Mexican accordion
The Weltmeister Wiener 571 is especially beloved in

of the Wiener 509 and features 34, rather that 31, but-

The Weltmeister Deutsche Harmonika is characterised by its attention to detail. The classic
black wooden box with gleaming hardware, red trimmings, elegant register switches, curved
grips and gold embossing prove the high-quality workmanship of this instrument.

playing experience.
The Deutsche Harmonika is especially beloved in the USA for playing Cajun music.

Steirische Harmonika
The sound of the Alps
The Weltmeister Steirische Harmonika is designed in the style of traditional
Klingenthal instruments and stands out thanks to its light weight. The sound is
just as one might wish for from a Styrian accordion with its double middle reed
ranks and helikon bass.
The switches allow the various tremolo tones to be combined as desired, giving
the accordionist optimal means of expression. The trimmings and strap round
off the overall look of the instrument. This is an accordion that you can take any­
where thanks to its weight – even up into the mountains.
