Kaminska “transforms the accordion into a massive force,” says Philadelphia Magazine. The recipient of numerous prestigious awards, she became at age 25 the first (and only) person in the U.S. to receive a Doctorate in Accordion Performance. She has been a featured soloist with the Kielce Philharmonic Orchestra of Poland, the Strings of Lodz, the Concord Chamber Orchestra and the Kansas City Chamber Orchestra. Works by J.S.Bach, Domenico Scarlatti, Isaac Albéniz, Aram Khachaturian, Niccolò Paganini, Sofia Gubaidulina, Vladislav Zolotarev and Felix Mendelssohn.
