ATG President Kenn Baert shares this important news: We want to make all of our ATG community aware of a recent change to the guest artist lineup for the 2025 ATG festival. Unfortunately, Radu Ratoi was unable to obtain a work visa for travel to the United States in time for our 2025 festival despite attempting various channels. Radu is very disappointed in the situation. We are happy to announce that we will bring Radu back for our 2026 festival in Salt Lake City, Utah.

Fortunately for all of us, Joaquín Muñoz Donoso, from the country of Chile, was already planning to attend our festival and has agreed to perform at our Friday night concert. Joaquín is a virtuoso of the accordion, with formal studies in various instruments (Cello, Double Bass, Organ, Composition, and Orchestral Conducting). Coming from a family of musicians, he has been engaged in academic studies since age 3. He is the winner of multiple national and international competitions and is extremely entertaining. Joaquín, along with the duo “Two Accordions” (Sergei and Maria Teleshev) will provide a wonderful concert for Friday night of our 2025 ATG festival.

I would like to offer a special thank you to Joaquín for stepping up at the last minute to help us be able to provide the kind of concerts that you have come to expect from the ATG.
