Było ciepłe popołudnie. Nagle usłyszałam rzewną pieśń, graną na guzikówce.
Wiem, że to chodzi o akordeon guzikowy (button accordion), ale może jest jakieś lepsze, mniej formalne określenie na to po angielsku niż button accordian.
Proszę o szybkie odpowiedzi, gdyż na rano muszę to mieć. Bardzo bardzo pięknie dziękuję z góry.

The term squeezebox (also squeeze box, squeeze-box) is a colloquial expression referring to any musical instrument of the general class of hand-held bellows-driven free reed aerophones such as the accordion and the concertina. The term is so applied because such instruments are generally in the shape of a rectangular prism or box, and the bellows is operated by squeezing in and drawing out.

concertina, bandoneon/bandonion
A concertina is a free-reed musical instrument, like the various accordions and the harmonica. It has a bellows, and buttons typically on both ends of it. - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concertina
--------
As with other members of the concertina family, the bandoneon is held between both hands, with pushing and pulling motions forcing air through its bellows, which is routed through reeds by pressing its buttons. - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bandoneon
