The Ins and Outs of the Accordion The Sears catalog once described it as an orchestra in a box, and it s a fixture at many Oktoberfest celebrations. The lively music of the accordion has been entertaining audiences for more than 00 years. Based on ancient Chinese instruments, several forms of the musical device were developed in Europe, but it was Cyrill Demian who patented his version in Austria in 9, naming it an accordion. The instrument produced sound when the user manually pushed or pulled the middle part, called the bellows, sending air over reeds and through an opening. Pushing finger buttons along the box s side at the same time controlled the pitch of the sounds. Later models added a piano-style keyboard to the design, which allowed more notes to be played. The accordion s popularity spread throughout Europe and the world. Since it is naturally loud, it was used in dance music, especially polkas and waltzes. Because it was portable, many immigrants brought their squeeze-box with them to the U.S. The accordion became a key instrument in many regional styles of music, such as Cajun, zydeco and Tejano. The first half of the 900s is often referred to as the golden age of the accordion, though the instrument has had a resurgence in recent years and has been featured in songs by popular artists. Pizza Across the Planet Pizza is a popular food in the U.S., with pepperoni, sausage, mushrooms and onions the top picks for ingredients. See what pizza toppings make the cut in other countries: Italy The place where pizza started boasts a variety of additions to their pies.

Japan Seafood is a mainstay of this island nation, where pizza toppings include octopus, eel and seaweed.
