The story starts like this: Otavio and I first met in Zaragoza. Both of us were composers and instrumentalists, foreigners navigating Europe, spending countless hours discussing concert plans and ideas. Nine years later, those plans have materialized. Our accordion and cello duo presents a diverse program, ranging from Piazzolla to traditional Taiwanese music, captivating the eager audience in Zaragoza. We also curate a concert series that reflects our quest for a nostalgic and unexplored sound, aptly named 'Distant Places,' in Barcelona. Through this record, Otavio's accordion artistry shines, revealing not just his technical mastery, but also his relentless pursuit of the instrument's virtuosic potential.
