I wrote asking for input about this new release:
>>Michael Easton (b. 1954): Concerto on Australian Themes; Concerto for Piano
>>Accordion, Piano and Strings; An Australian in Paris; Beasts in the Bush;
>>and an Overture. It was an Australian ensemble or orchestra
And Roger Hecht replied:

Not quite. Notice that it's a piece for a Piano Accordion comma Piano
etcetera. I don't know what a PA would look like, but it suggests to me some
kind of a pump piano. Might it be that?
James Zehm wondered:

>like a local Naxos release to me...
The former, I think -- not that I'm really familiar with the latter.
