 |
 Para la edición de este año de los “Días del Acordeón” en la Universidad de Música de Wuerzburg, Friedrich Lips, profesor de la Academia Gnessin de Música de Moscú, fue invitado para llevar acabo una master class y un concierto del 26 al 28 de Junio.En su concierto, Lips impresionó al público no solo gracias a su virtuosismo, sino también por el amplio rango musical de su programa: Desde la Suite Gótica (Boëlmann) a música original de autores como Gubaidulina y Cholminov, acabando con transcripciones de Khatchaturyan, Schumann, Schubert, Piazzolla, Brubeck y Johann Strauss. El segundo día, Lips llevo acabo una clase sobre la nueva música Rusa para Bayan (fin del siglo XX y comienzos del XXI) llamada “Made in Russia”. Lips ha estrenado alrededor de 70 obras para Bayan. Este hecho le hace poseer una enorme experiencia y entendimiento sobre esta música, aportando interesantes detalles sobre la creación de estos trabajos. En el contexto de un concierto compartido llamado “Accordion Night”, alumnos de las clases de Lips en Moscú y del profesor Stefan hussong (Wuerzburg), mostraron sus considerables capacidades como acordeonistas. Los jóvenes acordeonistas Stefanie Mirwald, Silke Huber, Sissi Retschmeier, Oroitz Maiz Morea, Marja Kandic, Denis Patkovic, Olivia Steimel y Semyon Shmelkov fueron artistas invitados a esta ocasión. Durante su master class, Friedrich Lips presentó a los estudiantes técnicas específicas acerca de la gran versatilidad del bayan. Una exhibición de instrumentos, partituras y CDs completó la variada oferta de los “Días del Acordeón” Muchas gracias al organizador, el profesor Stefan Hussong. |

 Teachers are reminded that the closing date for entries in the 2009 Coupe Mondiale is 10th July 2009. The reason for the earlier closing date than normal is because the dates of the 2009 Coupe Mondiale are 25-29 August so as to be during the holiday period for most European countries. This allows people travelling to New Zealand to have more time here for a holiday than if the event was held during October, the more usual month for the Coupe Mondiale. The Draft Schedule for the Coupe Mondiale has been updated on the website. Most of the performances are now listed there. There is an extensive list of press releases for the media online on the press pages of the website. |
