Примечание редактораby Rob Howard |
  Воскресенье 6 мая - Всемирный день аккордеона, 6 мая 1829 года аккордеон был запатентован в Вене, Австрия, Сирлием Демином (часто англизированным как Кирилл Дамиен).Хотя известно, что до 1829 года многие в Европе экспериментировали с тростником для изготовления аккордеонов, гармоник и других ранних инструментов. Сирлием Демином был первым, кто запатентовал аккордеон. Таким образом, 6 мая 1829 признан «официальным днем рождения» аккордеона. Аккордеон прошел долгий путь с начала 19 века и отлично адаптировался ко многим музыкальным стилям и жанрам во всем мире. По всему миру с 6 мая проводится множество мероприятий, посвященных Всемирному дню аккордеона, некоторые из которых опубликованы в Accordions Worldwide. Я буду играть на общественных мероприятиях в Стокпорте, Чешир, Великобритания, 6 и 7 мая и чествовать наш любимый инструмент. Счастливого Всемирного дня Аккордеона! |

  Рисунок выше: Мастер-сержант Буссо и сержант-майор Бобенрит, на репетиции за день до государственного обеда.Фотографии слева / справа: на снимке в вестибюле Белого дома. Два аккордеониста вооруженных сил США были представлены исполнителями во время государственного ужина 24 апреля в честь президента Франции Эммануэля Макрона в Белом доме в Вашингтоне, округ Колумбия. В начале вечера сержант-майор Мэнни Бобенрит и «Армейские струны США» приветствовали гостей в Восточном Портике, а старший сержант Фрэнк Буссо-младший и струны ВВС развлекали прибывающих гостей у входа в Восточное крыло. Насладившись французской кухней в Государственной столовой, гости переехали в Восточную комнату на концерт. Шоу началось с выступлений известных Вашингтонских вокалистов Национальной оперы и хора армии США. Финалом концерта стала особая аранжировка “La Vie en Rose” сержанта-майора Бобенрита Эдит Пиаф. Эта пьеса открылась теплым вступлением солирующего аккордеона в исполнении сержанта-майора Бобенрита, запели вокалисты и зазвучали инструменталисты армии Военно-воздушных сил США и завершилась песня звучанием сольного голоса и аккордеона в исполнении старшего сержанта Буссо. Сразу же после концерта сержант-майор Бобенриет и старший сержант Буссо снова возглавили свои ансамбли, когда они прощались с гостями в Восточном крыле. Мэнни Бобенрит, уроженец Консепсьона, Чили, присоединился к американской армии в 1986 году и стал ее лидером в 2004 году. Помимо военных, он выступает в качестве музыканта-фрилансера в районе большого Вашингтона, округ Колумбия, и предлагает частные уроки в своей студии Potomac, MD. Мэнни также входит в Совет директоров американской Ассоциации Аккордеонистов (AAA). Фрэнк Буссо-младший из Стейтен-Айленда, штат Нью-Йорк, стал аккордеонистом группы ВВС США в 2005 году и также является начальником отдела Live Production. В свободное время от работы, он руководит музыкальной школой Busso в Александрии, штат Вирджиния, и является директором Ernest Deffner Affiliates. Фрэнк работал в совете директоров AAA с 2007 года. |

В рамках VI Международного фестиваля «Зеленый шум» известный музыкант Юрий Шишкин и его ученики, лауреаты международных конкурсов Анна Крышталева, Петр Яриненко, Каролина Десяткова выступили с симфоническим оркестром Сургутской филармонии под руководством Станислава Дятлова. «Зеленый шум» - один из крупнейших фестивалей в России включает музыкантов с мировыми именами в различных областях искусства (музыка, балет, театр). Художественный руководитель фестиваля - выдающаяся пианистка Екатерина Мечетина. Концерт прошел с огромным успехом. Программа была уникальной: каждый исполнитель играл сольную пьесу, играл с оркестром, а затем в ансамбле с Юрием Шишкиным и оркестром. Ученики Юрия Шишкина впервые выступали с симфоническим оркестром.Прозвучала музыка В. Семенова, А. Цфасмана, А. Пьяццоллы, В. Гридина, Л. Пресиччи, В. Власова, Н. Даутова. Концерт завершился мировой премьерой «Seventango» композитор Роберто Молинелли, написанное для семи аккордеонистов и оркестра, которое стало кульминацией вечера. Вместе с Шишкиным и его учениками «Seventango» исполняли музыканты Сургута, лауреаты международных конкурсов Денис Адаев, Ринат Валиев, Никита Войтенко. Должен сказать, что Сургутская школа аккордеона известна во всем мире, среди ее представителей - чемпионы мира, лауреаты престижных конкурсов. Выступление «Seventango» превратилось в фейерверк тем из известных танго. Это был настоящий музыкальный спектакль, который вызвал бурные аплодисменты слушателей. Концерт планируется провести в нескольких городах России. Картинки ниже: Юрий Шишкин, Каролина Десяткова Юрий Шишкин, Петр Яриненко |

  Video above: "Il bosco incantato" premiere on 26th April performed by Marco Gemelli. This video does not include the intro of the work.Renzo Ruggieri has released "Il bosco incantato" the first piece he has composed for free bass accordion. Renzo writes: "I wrote the melody for a theatrical show by Marco Goldin - to whom the piece is dedicated - on the famous painter Edward Munch. In fact, the title recalls one of his paintings "The Enchanted Forest" of 1903. Then the simple melodic idea was reworked, arranged and used for "the guided solo", a moment that the soloist can freely interpret and personalize."
