    Bonjour mon ami(e)!

    The typical french accordeon is somewhat, if not a lot smaller than the usual ones and looks much nicer.
    The name of the french accordeon is musette. In some contries difficult to get.
    However, try any music shop that sells accordeons and see, what's their answer!
    Typical french accordeonn music or chansons which involve musette as background are for example
    - "Sous Les Ponts de Paris"(Piaf) "Sous le Ciel de Paris" " Pigalle" "L'accordeonist", "Domino"
    The french singers Edith Piaf and Frehel were amongst many others famous for using accordeon music in their chansons.
    Have fun and good luck:bonne chance!

    If you mean just the song named "accordeon" it was sung by Juliette Greco. Try that then!
