Performer
Ksenija Sidorova, Accordion

Experience the Carnegie Hall recital debut of the “revelatory” Ksenija Sidorova (The New York Times). With “breathtaking virtuosity” and an expansive vision that “demonstrates the remarkable potential … and expressive range” of her instrument (The Observer), Sidorova has become one of the world’s most vital accordionists. She performs works both written and wholly reimagined for the instrument, grounding the accordion within centuries of classical music composition by J. S. Bach, Albéniz, Piazzolla, Philip Glass, Franck Angelis, and many more leading contemporaries.
