Vladimir Ushakov prend part dans une série télé - Russieby Christine Johnstone |
 |
| L’accordéoniste Vladimir Ushakov a récemment été invité à prendre part au tournage d’un épisode de la série télévisuelle “Bayopik”, filmée par la première chaine de la compagnie de télévision russe. Il s’agissait de créer la musique pour un épisode où les personages principaux se rencontrent et de filmer la prestation d’un ensemble musical sur la scène d’un restaurant de Berlin dans les années 30. La musique devait correspondre aux canons de l’époque. En peu de temps, plusieurs morceaux ont été composés et arrangés pour l’ensemble. Après quelques répétitions, le tournage de l’épisode a eu lieu dans un grand pavillon (avec décor construit pour la scène) à St. Petersburg le 24 octobre. Les membres du groupe musical sont Shafayat Gadzhiev (accordéon), Vladimir Ushakov (accordéon), Lina Kolesnik (violon), Vladimir Bogomolov (guitare) and Dmitry Golovchenko (contrebasse). |

 One of New Zealand’s most popular tourist attractions in Rotorua channelled Northern Hemisphere spirit with an Oktoberfest themed afternoon, featuring entertainment from international accordionist Lionel Reekie (picture left).The “Hidden Forest “ Restaurant was decorated to capture the atmosphere of the Bavarian Alps, with this very unique venue situated amongst towering Redwood trees halfway down a scenic luge track. Part of the Skyline Skyrides complex overlooking Lake Rotorua, the luge track was a world first when it opened in 1986. Offering an open plan kitchen, chefs could be seen creating their amazing dishes of traditional European fare, including various sausages, sauerkraut, and meat dishes in front of guests. Rustic shared platters were served to tables for guests to share along with fine New Zealand craft beer, and of course a fine selection of sweet treats was on offer to finish off the meal. Lionel’s entertainment featured the obligatory Oktoberfest waltzes, polkas, folk music and even the famous “Birdie Dance”, but he was also able to mix up some of the other genres, taking requests whilst strolling amongst diners, including singing a few well known German and Italian favourites. Rotorua is around 3 hours drive south of Auckland (where Lionel is based). |
