Duo Karolina and Iwo
In 2024, Duo Karolina & Iwo received Poland’s most prestigious prize for classical music, praising its “versatility and ability … virtuosity, unbridled imagination, and ingenuity … for the distinctive combination of violin and accordion.” From Poland, the duo tours the U.S. a few times each year. Both hold doctorates in performance, Iwo is a Fulbright scholar for accordion, and their latest album won Poland’s equivalent of a Grammy. Presented as part of Mayesville Presbyterian Church’s Rejoicings Series, the 4 p.m. concert will be preceded at 3:30 by a chat with the musicians. The free concert is on Oct. 26 at 109 W. Sumter St. in Mayesville. The stunningly exquisite program includes Mozart, Chopin, tangos, and film music. Directions and more about the Duo are at www.maysvillepres.org.
