‘14 Years Ago’ – Frosini Society active in Scotland in 1999by Rob Howard |
The Accordions Worldwide news for the week ending May 6th 1999 included an item about workshops organized by the Frosini Society, and led by Swedish accordionist Lars Ek and Italian accordionist Roberto Enzo. The Frosini Society champions the cause of the music of Pietro Frosini, Guido and Pietro Deiro, and their contemporaries. Does the Frosini Society plan to do anything similar in 2013 to this very successful course held all those years ago? We would like to know. Frosini Society Workshop – Scotland Contributed by Gary Blair The Frosini Society held a ‘workshop’ weekend in Kelso, Scotland in April. Tutors included Lars Ek (Sweden) and Roberto Enzo (Scotland) who gave informative sessions on accordion techniques to a number of young and enthusiastic players. On Saturday night a gala concert was held featuring The Bill Sharp Accordion Orchestra, from Scotland, Lars Ek and Roberto Enzo. The audience of over 280 people were entertained to a wonderful variety of music. The UK Frosini Society plans to arrange other similar events in the future. |
