‘Dargaville Impressions’ makes Impression on Dargaville - New Zealandby Kevin Friedrich, CIA Ambassador |
Picture above from left to right: Michael Bell (organ), Lionel Reekie, Kevin Friedrich, Linda Emmett Litt and Joan Emmett Brown. The Holy Trinity Anglican Church in Dargaville, New Zealand was filled to capacity on 28th May 2023 for the much anticipated concert featuring organist Michael Bell from Auckland and New Zealand born accordionist Kevin Friedrich who resides in New York. The concert celebrated the recent refurbishment of the historic George Croft organ commissioned by the founding family of the town, the Dargaville family. The upgraded organ contains many modern features, but still allows the use of the original organ pipes from 1925, as was demonstrated during the concert. Picture left: Michael Bell and Kevin Friedrich beside the 1925 Croft organ. The concert featured solos by each artist as well as items bringing the accordion and organ together including the World Premiere of the beautiful new work ‘Dargaville Impressions’ by well-known English composer Ian Watson, a moving tribute to Her Late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II (1926 - 2022) and the premiere of renowned New Zealand composer Gary Daverne’s organ and accordion adaptation of his work ‘Song of the Far North’. The audience were treated to other works by Mozart, Schubert, Boyce, Brahms, John Williams, Bach, Hine, Zolotaryov, Venglevski, Macky, Daverne, Piazzolla, Rodgers and Hammerstein, Handel, Lithgow and Sousa. Michael and Kevin were assisted by local musicians Joan Emmett Brown and Linda Emmett Litt as well as Lionel Reekie and the North Shore Accordion Orchestra from Auckland and a guest appearance by composer and conductor Gary Daverne, who delighted the audience by accepting an invitation to guest conduct the North Shore Accordion Orchestra on one of his arrangements (See picture below). All proceeds from the concert go towards the upkeep and maintenance of the organ. |

Successful AATA Competitions and Festival – Australiaby Lionel Reekie |
Picture above: AATA competition winners. The Australian Accordion Teachers Association (AATA) held its annual championship at the Five Dock RSL Club in Five Dock, Sydney, NSW, on May 28th, 2023. This years’ event marked the return of face to face competition following the pandemic, so for many of the younger contestants, it was their first opportunity to compete in a major contest. Each year this competition places special importance on giving young accordionists valuable competition experience. The youngest contestants were only 6 years of age, but there were a total of 21 different categories providing a variety of musical genres for all ages, from classical to ethnic, jazz to entertainment music and even duet classes. The Jury featured some of Australia’s most respected accordionists and their positive encouragement towards all of the participants created a really supportive atmosphere. The AATA joined forces with the Accordion Society of Australia (ASA) in a combined gala concert (see picture left) showcasing the tremendous versatility of our instrument with wonderful solo and ensemble performances to a large and very supportive audience. International performers and competitors are warmly invited to attend next year’s 2024 Australian International Accordion Championships and any enquiries can be forwarded to AATA president, Tatjana Marx at: tats64@gmail.com |
Successful DHV 2023 Congress – Germanyby AWW |
The DHV Congress 2023 "Shaping the Future Together" took place in Schmitten im Taunus, Germany in April 2023. Current issues and challenges regarding the future of amateur music were discussed. The event was aimed at members of all club and association levels in the German Harmonica Association and the Hessian Harmonica Association. In various phases of work, participants developed important solutions and approaches to secure the future of accordion and harmonica orchestras as well as amateur music as a whole. In addition, outstanding examples from the association's work were presented and practical knowledge was imparted in seminars. A multitude of competing leisure activities, an increase in bureaucratic hurdles, a decreasing interest in making music and involvement in society, a decreasing attachment to the place of residence as well as a shortage of teachers and conductors - these are some of the current challenges in the amateur music scene mentioned by the congress participants. The aim of the DHV Congress 2023 was therefore to develop solutions together with experts from different fields and to formulate wishes and needs for the association in order to strengthen the amateur music landscape as important places of social coexistence and musical education, especially in rural areas. "Recruiting and retaining members", "volunteer work" and "attracting teachers and conductors to amateur music" – these were among the central topics on which exchanges took place in various formats. Based on reports from the field on Friday evening, Saturday was all about the congress title "Shaping the future together". With the help of the "Future Workshop" method, which enables larger groups to condense complex interrelationships in different phases of work, solutions to the above-mentioned topics were developed in a total of eight working groups. Numerous approaches to overcoming the challenges were developed by the participants. For example, the basic idea for a platform for the placement of musicians, teachers and conductors with orchestras was developed. In addition, the need for templates and handouts for the central topics of amateur music was strengthened. In addition, the need for tailor-made training and qualification formats was mentioned. The results will now be discussed promptly by the DHV and led into further work. On Sunday morning, the participants received concrete advice on how to organize their club life in one-hour impulse seminars. Lecturers included Dominik Eichhorn, head of the "Cooperation and Education" department at the Federal Association for Cultural Child and Youth Education, and Jutta Mettig, an expert in organizational consulting and development. After the past difficult years, in which the effects of the Corona pandemic have severely restricted cultural life in particular, it was a motivating and enriching experience for all participants to meet with association members at all levels in one place and discuss key issues. In this way, the DHV Congress 2023 was able to make an important contribution to securing amateur music and club structures and provide impetus for the future. The knowledge gained will help the association members in their voluntary work, but will also be made available to the entire amateur music and club scene in order to provide assistance in dealing with the challenges. |

How to celebrate National Accordion Awareness Month? Consider attending a live or Zoom concert or festival, purchase an accordion album on streaming platforms, watch an accordion event on social media, treat yourself to an accordion and lessons, visit the New England Accordion Museum in Connecticut, A World of Accordions Museum in Wisconsin or other accordion museums in your area, read the AWW accordion news publications each week/month to learn about what is happening with accordionists around the world, join an accordion organization/club such as ATG or AAA or one of many groups around the country where you will meet interesting people who share a common love for the accordion. |
