| On 17 June, Jérome Richard, Petar Maric (Serbia) and Frédéric Deschamps were broadcast on the LMTV program of Pascal Savard, "au bonheur de nacre”. Petar Maric, a student of Alexander Nikolic (Beltango) has recently arrived in France learning accordion from Frédéric Deschamps as part of the dynamic young Hohner Team. An exciting atmosphere prevailed. It has been a dream of Petar Maric to meet one of his idols, namely Jérome Richard, six times world champion and former student of Frédéric Deschamps. This dream happened live on television. The two then played a completely improvised duet on the famous and fearsome "Tempête" by André Astier which left everyone speechless.
