Warszawski Kwintet Akordeonowy, Badinerie, J. S. Bach
Warszawski Kwintet Akordeonowy, Toccata and Fugue in D minor, J. S. Bach
The Warsaw Accordion Quintet was formed in 1999 on the initiative of Professor Wlodzimierz Lech Puchnowski, reviving the former very famous quintet founded in 1961 but with new members. The newly created ensemble consisted of the students at the Fryderyk Chopin University of Music in Warsaw: Maciej Kandefer, Jaroslaw Kutera, Magdalena Igras, Miroslaw Mozol and Tomasz Holizna.

Since its inception, the ensemble has performed over one hundred concerts, participating in chamber music festivals in Poland and abroad (Chamber Music Festival in Marseille, France). The ensemble was also the prize-winner of the accordion competitions (International Accordion Festival in Sanok 2000, Mlawa Accordion Music Festival 2001), but to its biggest successes belong: 1st Place in the 9th International Competition of Contemporary Chamber Music in Cracow 2005, 1st Place in the Premio Citta di Castelfidardo, 3rd Place in the 5th Osaka Chamber Music Competition & Festa 2005, and participation in the final at the 4th Osaka Chamber Music Competition & Festa 2002.

Its repertoire contained the works of diverse periods and styles – from baroque to contemporary (including compositions written especially for them) as well as popular music – and quintet's artistic level arouses audience and critics interest.

The first Warsaw Accordion Quintet's album ‘Classical’, released in 2004, received nomination to Fryderyk 2004 Polish Music Award in the category of the ‘Best Album - Chamber Music’.

The current quintet's members are all graduates of the Fryderyk Chopin University of Music: Maciej Kandefer, Jacek Malachowski, Adam Czerski, Miroslaw Mozol, and Mateusz Wachowiak.
