Led by the energetic conductor P.-A. Krummenacher, the Union Accordéoniste Mixte of Geneva brings 25 accordionists on a program that ranges from cosmic soundscapes to earthy dances. Arrangements weave themes by John Williams, Hans Zimmer and Bear McCreary with pieces by Alexander Borodin, Richard Galliano and Michael Nyman, alternating cinematic swell and intimate chamber textures. Attention to dynamics and ensemble colour creates a vivid, theatrical sound world that shifts between soaring horizons and close, rhythmic clarity.
