Fine Arts @ FPC: The Art of the Accordion

  • FPC Tyler (Sanctuary) 230 West Rusk Street Tyler, TX, 75701 (map)

BBC New Generation artist, Royal Over-Seas League Gold medallist and Classic FM Rising Star, Ryan Corbett is an accordionist hailed by Sir James MacMillan as “one of the most astonishing and surprising newcomers in Scottish music.” A leading exponent of his instrument, he has given over eight hours of radio broadcasts and a televised performance at the Scottish Coronation of HM King Charles III. Corbett has enlarged the repertoire by creating hundreds of new arrangements for accordion, but no matter how strong his passion for the instrument, it is his dedication to musical integrity that takes precedence.

In recent seasons Ryan Corbett has given recitals at some of Europe’s most prominent venues, including the Berlin Philharmonie and London’s Wigmore Hall, and performed with numerous orchestras, such as the BBC Symphony Orchestra, Berlin Symphony Orchestra, and BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra. His performance promises to astound you with the myriad of musical possibilities of the accordion.
