Marina Kazakov, wife of pioneering accordionist Yuri Kazakov passed away on 5th July. She was born 1914 and travelled with Yuri on many of his concert tours. In her work life, Marina was a Doctor of Medicine, specialising in children.
Yuri Kazakov describes Marina as a best friend and love of his life and “the sun” which gave him inspiration, energy, stimulation and life. Our thoughts are with Yuri at this sad time.
