The accordion has long had a reputation as an instrument for folk music and of street musicians. Its technical and cultural evolutioncan be neatly traced from its very invention in 1829 by Cyrill Demian in his apartment on Viennas Mariahilfer Strae, No. 43, to thisday. The accordionist Bogdan Laketic, who lives in Vienna, dedicates his debut album Made in Vienna to this, his city, choosingworks by composers who are also directly connected with Vienna. Thus, the Sonatas for Piano in A flat major, Hob. XVI:46 and in Eminor, Hob. XVI:34 by Joseph Haydn, the Six little Piano Pieces Op. 19 by Arnold Schnberg and the Soires de Vienne, S 427 No. 6 by Franz Liszt are interpreted in his own arrangements. Also based in Vienna is the Belgian composer Dirk D'Ase, who in 2011composed Figuren/Induktionen, in which the diversity of the accordion's sound once again comes into play.
