Earlier this year, the small town of Curtis, Michigan, USA came alive with the sound of the accordion as the Houston Accordion Orchestra spent a week at the Erickson Center for the Arts. This event included seven days of rehearsing, filming, and premiering 15 original works written by their talented musicians.

Each evening, the doors opened to the public for live performances where community members had the chance to meet the orchestra and hear original works for the accordion.

Now the Stas Venglevski Music Foundation is excited to share memories of the event, with a live premiere of performances, interviews, and other highlights from the week.

The livestream of the 2026 recording project will be held on May 3rd, 2026, at 3:00 PM Central Standard Time.
