Australian Accordion Teachers Association

In Honour of
Lou Campara

Lou Campara has made a significant contribution to the accordion in Australia over the last 60 years. Lou came to Sydney in 1938 where he quickly established himself as an accordion entertainer at local venues including the Regent Theatre.

Since then Lou has travelled and toured extensively both locally and internationally, performing on many shows and television programmes such as the first Benny Hill Show. After a sudden stroke in 1995, sadly Lou had to cease playing the accordion.
