The
Klingenthal International Accordion Competition has a tradition of having
all the judges join the judging panel for the Concerto section. This
year the event had to be held in the Turnhalle Gymnasium Klingenthal
as the normal concert hall is being renovated. Seated at the tables
are the judges of one side of the hall.

The work required for the Concerto section is composed by Mikolai Majkusiak and titled Concerto Classico for Accordion and Orchestra. |
First to perform Concerto Classico for Accordion and Orchestra was Sergej Kotkov of Russia. This work was
a very good choice, not too long, melodic, with good audience appeal. The audience clearly enjoyed the performances.
Second performer was Wolodimir Oliynik of the Ukraine.
Third performer was Vladislav Pligovka of Belarussia.
Fourth performer was Anastasija Shkindzerava of Russia.
