I enjoy clasical music very much. When I was told that an epic piece would be played on the accordian

Are you kidding....that guy is kick butt on that instrument. If you were to close your eyes and listen to this you would think you are hearing an orchestra. Really, it sounds like violins in the beginning.

I don't think it's a fake. Before I switched over to piano I took keyboard lessons from a Pole who was actually a graduated accordeon player. At auditions he occasionally played himself. Pretty amazing what he could do with that instrument.
