Description

Discover the second recording by Latvian accordionist Ksenija Sidorova. On this album, Ksenija combines old and new repertoire as well as transcriptions and original works. The concerto Fairy Tales by Vaclav Trojan, recorded with the BBC National Orchestra Of Wales, is written in a very accessible and melodic style. You will also find arrangements and transcriptions of major pieces such as Moszowski’s Caprice Espagnol, the scherzo from Mendelssohn’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream, and Grieg’s Holdberg Suite. Ksenija Sidorova has already won numerous international awards and is currently considered one of the greats in her field. Whether classical repertoire or Argentine tango, her colorful and expressive playing never fails to delight her audience. Rolando Villazon welcomed her on his show "Les Stars de Demain" on December 12, 2013 on ARTE.
