For this special performance Mirek Salmon will select Tangos and Milongas from his extensive repertoire as an accordion and bandoneon soloist.The programme will also include compositions by Knud and Daphna from their album Climbing the Summit featured on BBC3.

“The BBC’s own accordionist” Paddy O’Connell, BBC Radio 4

“Brilliant and hypnotic mix of Jazz, Classical and Jewish music……Seductive and powerful music” John Zorn about Daphna Sadeh’s album Reconciliation
