If Bach had known the accordion… Have you ever wondered what the great baroque compositions sound like performed on the accordion? In my opinion, the accordion is one of the most suitable and complex solo instruments for performing baroque music despite its youth. Its technical, timbre and dynamic possibilities enable to play baroque masterpieces with ultimate ease, both transcriptions and original pieces with full respect of the early music interpretation but with a novel sound character at the same time.
