Заметка редактора

Rob Howard6 мая – Международный день аккордеона. Редакция Accordions Worldwide знаяет, что множество людей планируют отметить день своего любимого инструмента. Именно 6 мая 1829 года в Вене (Австрия) Кирилл Дамиан получил патент на свой первый аккордеон. И вскоре началось повальное увлечение этим инструментом.

Удивительно, что аккордеон, как хамелеон прекрасно приспособился в музыкальной культуре самых разных стран и стал неотъемлемой частью самых раз0ных музыкальных жанров. На нем играет и стар и млад на всех обитаемых континентах. Его репертуар и сфера применения продолжает расширяться, чтобы радовать любую аудиторию. Да будет так.

4th International Akordeon Art Festival & Competition 2013 banner
С 23 по 27 апреля в Сараево прошел международный фестиваль Akordeon Art Festival. Организатор фестиваля – декан музыкального факультета местного университета Зоран Ракич. Это мероприятие стало крупнейшим по числу участников конкурсом солистов – баянистов и аккордеонистов, собрав около 240 заявок в 9 категорий по различным возрастным номинациям от 10 до 20 лет.

Участники приехали из Боснии и Герцеговины, Сербии, Черногории, Хорватии, Македонии, России и Украины.

Множество концертов и интересных мероприятий разного формата проходило каждый вечер в рамках фестиваля. После утренней пресс-конференции начался конкурс, в каждой категории которого было более 40 участников.

В концерте-открытии фестиваля участвовали: хор под управлением Раде Радовича (Rade Radovic) и оркестр баянистов и аккордеонистов Душана Эрака (Dusan Erak) (фото внизу), а также многократный чемпион мира Грейсон Мейсфилд с программой «варьете».
На третий день конкурса состоялась лекция профессора Вячеслава Семенова, на которой он рассказывал о своих сочинениях, истории создания тех или иных пьес, образных сферах, исполнительских интерпретациях.

Вечером состоялся концерт финского дуэта Киммо Маттилы (баян) и Айно Оякоски (скрипка). Прозвучала музыка танго, написанная композиторами Финляндии и других стран. Таким образом, слушатели получили представление о том, как развивается стиль танго в Финляндии в настоящее время.

В пятницу профессор Любомир Лукич (Ljubomir Lukic) сделал доклад о происхождении и развитии баяна и аккордеон с древних времен (Шэн) до наших дней.
Городской оркестр Белграда (фото внизу) в своем концерте исполнил программу с солирующими баяном (аккордеоном) и различными народными инструментами.
Суббота: после завершения финальных туров конкурса состоялась церемония награждения и закрытия.

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.
