 The Accordions Worldwide news for the week ending May 5th 2000 included a report about Russian accordionist performing in Ireland in a concert that also featured no less than three local accordion orchestras. Recent years have seen many more accordionists doing international travel, taking their music to distant lands. The world is becoming a smaller place!Russian Accordionist Performs in Ireland Contributed by Enda Kelly The Heritage town of Kells in Co. Meath, Ireland was the venue for an exciting evening of accordion music on April 30th. Guest Alexander Korbakov gave a recital of classical and Russian folk music, delighting the audience with his free bass repertoire and interpretation of Russian folk tunes. The concert also included performances by the Oristown Intermediate Accordion Orchestra and the Castletown Senior and Preparatory Accordion Orchestras. The Oristown AO performed a popular program including ‘Irish Suite’, ‘West Side Story’ and ‘Time to say Goodbye’. The orchestra will give a recital in their hometown of Kells on July 2nd, prior to their trip to the UK where they will take part in the European Concert Band Competition as part of the Midsomer Norton Mardi Gras Festival. The Orchestra would like to contact other accordion orchestras in Europe who may be interested in an exchange or twinning program. |
