�Թϱ���

You may have already heard the sweet, melancholic tunes coming out of Michael Bridge's accordion.

He is �Թϱ���'s Accordion Guy.

Bridge started playing when he was just 5 years old and has stayed with the instrument since then. He came to �Թϱ���'s Faculty of Music for his undergrad, stayed on for grad school and on June 12th, he'll be graduating with a master's degree in music performance. Up next, he'll begin doctoral work for accordion performance – also at �Թϱ���.

The accordion virtuoso says �Թϱ���’s graduate program “changed his understanding of what the accordion can do.”
