William Schimmel presenta la grabación de una nueva ópera, Nueva York - EEUU
Información por Rob Howard

New World Records ha presentado recientemente un doble CD, una ópera de cámara de una hora y cuarenta minutos de duración "The Floating Box" de Jason Kao Hwang. Cuenta la historia de inmigrantes chinos en el barrio Chino de Nueva York. El libreto es de Catherine Filloux. La ópera presenta una parte de acordeón elaborada e interpretada por William Schimmel.

Un reciente artículo en la Revista Internacional Record dice "lo más inspirado de todo es su uso del acordeón para crear un ambiente armónico, y el responsable de esto es el admirable William Schimmel, quien proporciona con su labor un gran nivel a la grabación". Jason Kao Hwang escribió estrechamente con Schimmel el desarrollo de esta parte y usa un puente en su partitura entre los instrumentos western así como instrumentos tradicionales chinos como el erhu y la pipa. El artículo presenta a Schimmel como el protagonista de la ópera junto con los cantantes. El estreno se realizó en el 2001 en Asia Society de Nueva York. Juan Carlos Rivas dirigió el estreno y la grabación.

Accordionist Dazzles in Historic Memorial, Melbourne - Australia
Contributed by Rob Howard

Melbourne witnessed one of its rare concerts to feature the accordion in a classical setting. Visually impaired accordionist, Bernadette Conlon, performed two concertos with the Melbourne based string orchestra, The Melbourne Musicians at the prestigious St. John's Lutheran church at Southgate, one of Melbourne's most coveted performance venues.

Bernadette performed New Zealand composer, Gary Daverne's 'Concert Waltz' for strings and accordion, which delighted the audience with its sweeping Parisian style, as one newspaper critic put it.

She also performed Australia's first concerto for accordion and orchestra, 'Concerto for Bernadette', which she commissioned nine years ago, from Melbourne composer, Michael Easton, which work Bernadette had previously recorded for the Naxos label. This performance was a memorial to Michael, a Fellow of the Royal Academy of Music in London who died, aged 54, last year.

Bernadette was critically acclaimed in Melbourne's daily newspaper, The Age, as an accordionist, who played with "agility and relish in her work", and that the concerto "brought home again Conlon's enthusiasm and talent".
