While I’m Away by Stas Venglevski performed by Joan Grauman and JoAnn Pankow The Potomac Accordion Ensemble was founded in 2004 by its director, Joan Grauman. Originally, Joan formed the group to assist members of the Washington Metropolitan Accordion Society (WMAS) who just started to play the accordion or had just returned to the instrument after not playing for (up to 45) years. The music and the camaraderie kept everyone coming back for more. Soon, the ensemble was being approached by the national accordion associations to perform at their events and banquets. Named after the beautiful Potomac River, the group has performed in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, all over Virginia, Washington, DC and Maryland. Performing in coffeehouses, for major music festivals, farmers’ markets and Christmas events, the now almost eleven year-old ensemble is looking forward to another exciting year of bringing the beautiful sounds of the accordion to the public. |
