accordion

G. Ligeti

Musica Ricercata

M. Musorgskij

The accordion, the quintessential “proletarian”, “vagabond” instrument, as Gabriel García Márquez called it, has only recently earned its place among the “higher class” of instruments — including its place of honor in Luciano Berio’s Sequenza XIII in 1995 — following a sequence of important appearances and original pieces (e.g. Berg, Hindemith, Creston, among others) and of effective transcriptions, such as the ones taken from two famous original works for piano: Mussorgsky’s Pictures at an Exhibition and Ligeti’s Musica ricercata.
