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 Germanys largest centre for the
manufacture of mouth organs.
Accordion production started in 1852, when Adolph Herold brought
the accordion along from Magdeburg. At that time the accordion was
a much simpler instru-ment, very similar to the mouth organ, and so
it was easily reproduced. The ensuing years saw the creation of
well-known brands such as Barcarole, Contasina, Firotti, Horch and
Royal Standard, as well as the esta-blishment of accordion making
as a senior branch of industry in the so-called musical corner of
the Vogtland region. Numerous patented inventions stand as a
testa-ment to the creativity and imagination of the engineers and
accordion makers of that time.
In 1948, several factories were merged into a nationally owned
enterprise, VEB Klingenthaler Harmonika-werke, while other
factories of the region united to form handicraft cooperatives or
partly fell under state control. Finally, in 1973, all remaining
factories and workshops were incorporated into VEB Klingenthaler
Harmonikawerke, creating a merged workforce of over 3500.
Production consolidation also had its benefits. More than 30
engineers and technicians worked to stre-amline the instrument
making process and improve quality and customer service. A number
of inventions also came about at that time, including the plastic
key-board supported on two axes and the plastic and metal mechanism
that can be fully removed with two screws.
Outstanding artists instruments were developed, such as the
Weltmeister Supita, followed by brave innova-tions such as the
Weltmeister Consona or the Barcarole Sonaphon.
The breakdown of the GDR meant the breakdown of this industrys
market, as the introduction of the Deutsche mark quadrupled the
price of East German products overnight. Against this background,
many operative parts of the company were hived off again. In 1992,
VEB Klingenthaler Harmonikawerke was transformed into Harmona
Akkordeon GmbH, where we continue to produce exclusively in
Klingenthal the Weltmeister accordions so popular around the world.
Beginning 1 October 2017, Harmona Akkordeon GmbH is operating under
a new name: Weltmeister Akkordeon Manufaktur GmbH.

Cassott0 374, 414
The intro model
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 the basic and lower reed ranks. The instrument's
light weight is due to the special filling cassotto, a resonance
duct that is not built into the accordion, but placed on the
filling.
This makes the accordion easier and more cost-effective to
service and tune. This Weltmeister accordion is as much at home in
an orchestra as it is with a soloist on stage and it holds its own
with all types of music.
The Cassotto model is available with 37 keys and 96 bass buttons
as well as with 41 keys and 120 bass buttons.

Weltmeister Childrens Accordion
Weltmeister from the very start
Weve 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 childrens accordion has a
pleasant rounded shape and features the same keyboard as its big
sibling, the 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
childrens hands. These improvements will help lay the foundation
for many years of successful accordion playing.

Topas III, IV
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 players heart
could desire in an instrument its size. Its 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 or chestra instrument
thats very much at home in concert halls.

Monte Classic 34, 37, 41
The mountains are calling
The Weltmeister Monte is the top choice for those who want to
play Alpine folk music. With two middle reed ranks that offer an
outstanding sound and can be tuned as you please from mild tremolo
to strong musette the Monte leaves nothing to be desired. The
wood-core keyboard with pearloid coating and the precise standard
Weltmeister bass mechanics, also in an attractive mother-of-pearl
look, ensure just the right feel when playing this instrument.
The Weltmeister Monte is available in different sizes and
versi-ons, including a helikon version for the Alpine bass
sound.

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 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.

Wiener 509
The Wiener 86W offers just about everything a players heart
desires despite its compact size. Featuring a third row of
but-tons, the 509 has an extended range with two additional tone
types, allowing players to cover even more challenging works.
The bass strap is adjustable, offering the highest level of
playing comfort, as is the case with every Weltmeister
accordion.

Wiener 520, 521
The Wiener 521, also known as the Corina III, is an adap-ted
version of the Wiener 509 with double tremolo tuning.
In contrast, the Wiener 520, or Corina, is technically similar
to a Styrian accordion. It has a stepped keyboard and treble
switches for five different tonal colours. This instrument is
available with octave or musette tuning (double tremolo), leaving
little to be desired in comparison with other smaller
accordions.

Wiener 571
The Mexican accordion
The Weltmeister Wiener 571 is especially beloved in the western
United States and in Mexico. It was born of the Wiener 509 and
features 34, rather that 31, but-tons so the diatonic scales are
extended lower.
The light weight, good articulation and finely adjusted
mechanics speak to the high Klingenthal quality of this instrument,
which pleases players and audiences alike.

Deutsche Harmonika
The Cajun accordion
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.
Though this type of accordion has been around for ages, it
contains modern elements, reed plates with low air consumption and
meticulously finished mechanics, promising a pleasant 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.

Freebass 26, 26 k
For free spirits
Some accordion students arent satisfied with the standard bass
options; they want to play as freely with
their left hand as they do their right. So we created the
Weltmeister Freebass, which allows players to freely play melodies
and chords with their left hand as well.
During its development, we made an effort to keep the instrument
as light as possible so students could just focus on playing. The
FB 37 is available with 34 keys and 37 bass buttons in the piano
version.
Let your bass run free!

An accordion consists of about 2,500 individual parts, and it
takes about 5,000 work steps to finally enjoy its marvel of sound.
Far more than 90 per cent of all parts, whether made from wood,
metal, plastic, celluloid, fabric, board or paper, are manufactured
here at Weltmeister in Klingenthal.
