Toeac The duo consists of Renรฉe Bekkers and Pieternel Berkers, both graduated at the Fontys Academy of Music and Master of Music student at the Royal Danish Academy of Music in Copenhagen. His is passionate and committed to musical experiments touching every nuance that the sound of the accordion can help by spreading a tool of extreme importance to the music of the past and the future.
