Mas Alla Del Sueno

When the musicians of Duo Accordarra discovered the substantial difference in timbres between their own instruments, accordionist Krisztian Palagyi and guitarist Ivan Petricevic decided to create their own arrangements of some of their favorite music. True to the motto 'no risk no fun,' Palagyi and Petricevic left behind the 'comfort zone' of the concert soloist and immersed themselves into the fascinating world of arrangements of music with a Mediterranean flair. The title of the recording, Mas alla del sueno or Beyond the Dream, underlines the duo's intention to always think ahead with regards to musical development, to seek inspiration in the future and to remain open to new ideas and dreams. Duo Accordarra met while studying toward their Masters degrees at the University of Music and Dance in Cologne, Germany. The two highly accomplished soloists share similar musical tastes and a vigorous and passionate technique. Since very little music has been written for their combination of instruments, Duo Accordarra enjoy the exploration and study of a new and broader repertoire, so as to give room to the different timbres of both instruments and to present well known music in a new light.
