The World Accordion Festival is a part of the City Festival, incorporating an international music festival, one of a kind in Portugal.On 29th October, come to CampoReal and watch the live performance of the group:
Tricycle was created in 2001 by Belgian accordionist / pianist Tuur Florizoone. This trio - accordion, bass and soprano saxophone - evokes creativity and imagination.
The search for new possibilities in sound and instruments results in very personal and organic original compositions, spiced with improvisation and interaction. Some call it 'jazz', others 'world' or 'imaginary' ... it is the choice of the one that listens.
The music is a creation of Tricycle energy, comprehensive, visual in nature. Tricycle is targeted at a wide audience, curious and adventurous. The band's original compositions, tinged with nostalgia, evoke the subtle, old stereotypes.
