“When I first heard the sound of Siwa & Figli accordion, it was enchanting. It is of course also thanks to the artist who was playing ( he was playing the music called Sevdah, in which I am specialized in).
In that moment I decided to get the instrument know better. The softness of the keyboard and the sound melody and , above all, the easiness in playing the instrument convinced me to place an order. I got know the family Stanojlovic better. They manufacture accordions with love and they know how to satisfy your requests as they are also players and they know all kind of music very.”
