 The last composition of renowned Russian composer Anatoli Kusjakov, his Sonata No. 7 'Misterium' is now available for viewing on the popular YouTube site. The work is performed by Finnish concert accordionist Mika Väyrynen during a concert in Andoain, Spain on 16th November 2009, an event sponsored by the Unión de Acordeonistas de España (UNAC), organized by their President Angel Luis Castaño. This last composition of Kusjakov before his untimely passing on July 11th 2007, this work was commissioned by the Finnish Accordion Institute and dedicated to Mika Väyrynen. This new work has remained a relative mystery to the accordion world, with very few people having had the opportunity to hear it so far. The World Premiere was given by Mika at a concert at the Royal Academy of Music in London on 14 April 2008 and he has since recorded for his upcoming CD, due for release this year. To share this work with the accordion world and general public, Mika has granted permission to release this live performance on YouTube. The music will be published during this Spring, and will be available from the Finnish Accordion Institute.
