 Twenty-five
young and dynamic accordionists form the French Accordion Orchestra "Jeunesse
Accordeon du Sundgau". Their choice of program for this recording
includes pieces of a lighter character: some light classical numbers arranged
for the accordion orchestra and various soloists (vocal, trombone, accordion),
pieces by Piazzolla, etc. and is definitely orientated towards more of an
entertainment style. Although the musicians are amateur accordionists, they
achieved quite a professional musical approach in many aspects such as:
style, overall tonal quality, sophistication and balance.
Use of other instruments and vocals in combination with the orchestra of
accordions was most successful, giving that sense of big, full sound. They
are definitely entertaining and pleasant to listen to. ****
