"Farfisa from Castelfidardo/Camerano, Italy, was founded in 1946 by Silvio Scandalli, Settimio Soprani, and Frontalini. Farfisa stands for "FAbbriche Riunite De FISArmoniche", United Accordion Factory, although the Farfisa brand name is best known for electronic organs, of course. Paolo Soprani merged with Scandalli in 1984 (or 1987?). From 1987 Farfisa became part of Gruppo Bontempi, and the accordion producing part of the company went under the name of La Fisarmonica di Paolo Bontempi. In 1995 the Paolo Soprani and Scandalli brands were spun off into Menghini, later Suoni s.r.l. [WM] [GA] [AM] [IT] "

"In 1946 to meet the challenges and opportunities of new markets, F.lli Scandalli of Camerano and Settimio Soprani of Castelfidardo combine to form Farfisa ( from Fabbriche Riunite di Fisarmoniche). This company in turn was to become one of the worlds' biggest musical instrument factories and at this time was producing 180 accordions a day.",
"The impetus of this new company led to the formation of the CDMI ( Centro Didattico Musicale Italiano ) and many famous composers wrote pieces for the accordion and teaching methods for the Edizioni Musicali Farfisa."
