So, your character visits France. Chances are that they will visit Paris (often an idealized/cliché version of it, and nothing else, because France is Only Paris), eat delicious French cuisine like frog legs and escargot, and drink lots of wine... and all of these scenes will usually be accompanied by cheerful accordions. Despite originating from Italy, these instruments became really popular in France in the 19th century, and soon, cafés and cabarets in the country were filled with the sound of these instruments. During the 1930s, the accordion-heavy bal musette became incredibly popular, and this music style is linked to traditional France in the collective mind to this day. It isn't rare to find beggars or street artists playing accordion in the Parisian subway or in the streets even now (though it can be rarer in other French cities). On a side note, accordion is part of some non-Parisian French regions' traditional music such as in Alsace (where it sounds closer to Polka and German brass band music, for historical reasons), but it's as rarely featured in fiction as non-Parisian areas of France are, and thus bal musette/waltz-style accordion music dominates in fictionland. Despite the tendency to associate accordions with France/Paris, the instrument is far from exclusive to that country. Louisiana French culture is well-known for accordion-heavy music such as Zydeco, and you're likely to hear accordions in the musical theme of a Ragin' Cajun when it's not fiddling. Certain styles of Mexican music, most especially norteño, also make extensive use of the instrument. South American countries like Brazil or Colombia and most especially Argentina with the tango scene, as well as Eastern European countries are rather fond of it as well, but this fact isn't as widely known as France's case. The largest non-French accordion usages most people are likely to recognize are polka music, tango music and sailing music. Sub-Trope of Regional Riff. |

In The Return of the Pink Panther, Inspector Clouseau is sidetracked by a blind accordionist with a monkey (or "minkey"), distracting him from the bank robbery taking place next door. Chief Inspector Dreyfus later berates him for this, saying that the blind accordionist was actually a look-out man for the gang that robbed the bank. | |

The Sims 3 are a big offender of this trope: every single song playing in the French vacation spot Champs-les-Sims is a accordion musette.

The French Canadian series Les 2 Minutes du Peuple has a less-than flattering episode on accordions (according to which the accordion was inspired by several people farting at different pitches). It also goes into the different types of accordions, from cheap ones for children to decent ones for amateurs to hugely expensive ones for performers (all of which sound exactly the same), and where one can find accordions: in polkas, in waltzes, in tangoes, in trash cans... | |

While the French-based Seaside Kingdom in Super Mario Odyssey is refreshingly subtle in its French references, based on the French Riviera instead of Paris, its bossa nova music manages to slip in an accordion part near the end of the loop. More characteristically, however, the Mario games use accordions for a more Italian-sounding Regional Riff, such as the cheerful piazza music that dominates Super Mario Sunshine. | |

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic is technically set in a fantasy world, but still manages to use this trope in "MMMystery on the Friendship Express". The snooty baker Gustave Le Grande clearly hails from a Fantasy Counterpart Culture of France, as he speaks with a French accent, dresses like a stereotypical French chef, and has accordion music playing during his introduction. | |

Occurs in Looney Tunes: Back in Action when the scene shifts from Area 52 in the United States to Paris. Along with the accordion tune, there are also artists with easels, street mimes in striped shirts, and Roman Catholic nuns shepherding identically dressed schoolgirls. It's as though France mandates this stuff. | |

While it isn't set in France, The Professional does count since the film's soundtrack uses the accordion for the more emotional or lighthearted moments between Leon and Mathilda. It also helps that the director and composer of this film are French. | |

Ratatouille is set in Paris. Michael Giacchino's score was his usual orchestral style, but with added accordion parts in several tracks, most notably the main theme "Le Festin" (which even got an accordion-solo reprise at the end of the "End Creditouilles" medley). | |

While averted for a good chunk of Pokémon X and Y's soundtrack (which takes place in the heavily France-based Kalos), the music playing in both Camphrier Town and Couriway town is reminiscent of traditional accordion French popular music. Professor Sycamore's theme also heavily uses accordions. | |

Hiroyuki Sawano is well known for putting two different song compositions onto one track. Promare provides us with "fanFAREpiZZa". The first half of the song is a triumphant-sounding fanfare as the name suggests, but at the 1:32 mark of the song, the french accordion is mixed with Drum and Bass to give an energetic and lighthearted Hip-Hop feel that is played when the main cast is enjoying themselves at an Italian pizzeria. | |
