The accordion is gaining popularity again after decades in obscurity, and Chinese students are even winning awards abroad. Chen Nan reports.
When Cao Xiaoqing started learning the accordion at the age of 5 in 1970, the instrument was very popular in China.
"You can play everything on it, pop songs, folk tunes and chords, and the instrument is portable," says Cao, 52.
