 Video: Bachtopus performing “String of Garlands” by Guy Klucevsek.The Bachtopus Accordion Ensemble is excited to release the fourth commission from their 2020 Composers Commissioning Fund, entitled “String of Garlands,” which was originally written by composer and accordionist Guy Klucevsek for accordion orchestra and then arranged for Bachtopus. This composition was written in memory of Anne Garland for her husband David and son Kenji. With a recording catalog spanning four decades, Guy Klucevsek remains one of the most accomplished and respected accordionists in the world. The Bachtopus Accordion Ensemble’s 2020 Composer Commissioning Fund is sponsored, in part, by the Greater New York Arts Development Fund of the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs, administered by Brooklyn Arts Council (BAC). Contributors are Brooklyn Arts Council and New York City Department of Cultural Affairs. The Bachtopus Accordion Ensemble is back at the River Arts Music Tour held at the Dobbs Ferry Waterfront Stage in New York performing on June 4th, 2022 at 2pm and 3pm. Their program will feature music from Guy Klucevsek, a world premiere from Denise Koncelik, and a few selections by J.S. Bach. The performance will take place outside. Masks are not required, but will be available for those who prefer to wear one. Admission is free (donations are welcome but not required).
