Above is the video performance of Naomi Harris, 12 years and under category 2nd place getter at Leavenworth, performing the popular Libertango.

Nestled in a cozy narrow mountain, Leavenworth is known as Washington State’s ‘Bavarian Village’ and is a perfect setting for this celebration.

The event featured competitions, a festival and three evening concerts with Jörgen Sundeqvist and Lena Rist-Larsen, Jelena Milojevic, Mike and Margie Aman and the BC Accordion Orchestra.
