Repertoire
The Chemnitzer concertina has been predominantly used in folk music, especially Polka music played in Central and Eastern Europeans and by nineteen- and twentieth century immigrants to the United States from those regions. However the instrument, especially in its 52-button and larger versions, is capable of performing in other musical contexts.

Famous quotes containing the word repertoire:
“For good teaching rests neither in accumulating a shelfful of knowledge nor in developing a repertoire of skills. In the end, good teaching lies in a willingness to attend and care for what happens in our students, ourselves, and the space between us. Good teaching is a certain kind of stance, I think. It is a stance of receptivity, of attunement, of listening.”
—Laurent A. Daloz (20th century)
“The best joke-tellers are those who have the patience to wait for conversation to come around to the point where the jokes in their repertoire have application.”
—Joseph Epstein (b. 1937)
