It is Bach fugue from Toccata and fugue in d-minor. Try to avoid looking at video so you can make a guess 🙂
Originally posted by ivan2908Thanks for sharing. This reminds me of my trip to Kracow, Poland in July 2005 and I saw a street performer play this on the same instrument on the North side of Cloth Hall. The next day there was a trio playing more Bach. I was just as impressed then.

I am finishing music academy with that instrument and I will hopefully go to postgraduate studies at Sibelius Academy.
Less known is that Mtislav Rhostropovich himself was impressed with the classical accordion and he sponsored one young Russian player...
Accordion is too known only for folk or entertaining music. Actually this instrument is so different is not really an accordion anymore.
I currently play Bach's Passacaglia and fugue in c-minor BWV 582 on it for my academy graduation 🙂 but I am still way too much perfectionist to post it on you tube. I will post it when I will have recital in one church in Milano (soon) if it will be enough good for my taste 😛
