14 Years Ago: 2002 - Concerto for Accordion and String Quartet – Polandby Rob Howard |
The Accordions Worldwide News for April 19th 2002 included an item about the performance in Poland of an accordion concerto, by its composer Olexiy Suslow. Concertos written involving the accordion as a solo instrument are still relatively uncommon, so this performance in 2002 was quite newsworthy. Concerto for Accordion and String Quartet – Poland Accordionist and composer Olexiy Suslow performed his own composition ‘Concerto Dieptych No 2’ and Haydn's ‘Concerto in D Major’ (arranged for accordion and string quartet) in the Pope's Theological Study Hall in Wroclaw recently. In addition the children's orchestra ‘Harmonica’, conducted by Galina Suslow, performed works by Tchaikovsky, Strauss and Bizet. This concert was held in conjunction with the opening of the Music School S-Art in Wroclaw. |
