For Ksenija Sidorova, the accordion is an attitude to life. After her first breakthrough concert in London she has been wowing audiences worldwide. In Grafenegg she and the Tonkunstler Orchestra take an emotional journey from the Argentina of Piazzolla’s Bandoneon Concerto, with its tango melancholy, to the quintessence of Spain in Bizet’s «Carmen».
