The 47 accordionists will perform at the Neumarkt Theatre in Zurich, Switzerland on April 20th and 21st, 2024.

“Three Zurich accordion orchestras; HC Stadt Zürich, AO Zürichsee, AO Zürich Altstätten take a step behind the scenes of a theatre at the Theater Neumarkt.”

Accordionists will be “situated in the make-up, in the director’s office and backstage, some grouped around the centre stage, others are hidden in the farthest corner.”

Their program of music entitled “All you can hear” was composed especially for the occasion and the audience is invited to come and go and linger between 4pm and 7pm.

The event is supported by the Canton of Zurich’s Department of Culture, the Ernst Göhner Foundation, the Elisabeth Weber Foundation, the Landis & Gyr Foundation, the Suisa Foundation, the Dr. Adolf Streuli Foundation, the Migros Culture Percentage, the Swiss Interpreters’ Foundation, and accordeon.ch
