ElektroAkustisNews showcases the growing partnership between the Keski‑Pohjanmaan Kamariorkesteri (KPKO) and the Kokkola Winter Accordion collective. The first half opens with the fresh addition of Sampo Kasurinen’s concerto for string orchestra and electronically extended accordion (bass), masterfully performed by accordionist Harri Kuusijärvi. In the second half, the program explodes into a richly virtuosic rendition of Erich Korngold’s Symphonic Serenade, Op. 39—a hallmark of early Hollywood sound—highlighting a subtle motif from *Anthony Adverse* in the slow movement and a soaring theme from *Captain Blood* in the finale. Throughout, Emmy‑award‑winning conductor Tomas Djupsjöbacka guides the ensemble, delivering an unforgettable blend of classical mastery and electrified innovation.
