‘14年前’ – Joan Cochran Sommers率领UMKC 欧洲巡演by Rob Howard |
 环球手风琴新闻曾于1997年8月1日报道了现在仍然非常活跃的Joan Cochran Sommers 指挥的一支美国手风琴乐团UMKC Accordion Ensemble的欧洲巡回演出的令人愉快的经历. 巡演改编的乐曲由另一个现在仍然非常活跃的手风琴家Herbert Scheibenreif完成, 他经常为我们的环球手风琴新闻撰稿. UMKC ACCORDION ENSEMBLE TOUR TO EUROPE Contributed by Joan Cochran Sommers The UMKC Accordion Ensemble Concert Tour to Europe was indeed a great success. The 13 accordionists and 1 percussionist, directed by Joan Cochran Sommers, presented concerts in venues in the cities of Salzburg, Vienna, Budapest, Prague, and Munich. All concerts were sold out, and in many cases extra chairs had to be brought in. Music performed included the following selections: • Excerpts from ‘An American in Paris’ (Gershwin) • Medley from ‘A Fiddler on the Roof’ (Bock & Harnick) • ‘All That Jazz’ from ‘Chicago’ (Kander & Ebb) • ‘Solina’ (J. Lisenby) • ‘Prelude and Fugue in G, BWV 541’ (Bach) • ‘Dance of the Comedians’ (Smetana) • ‘Granada’ (Lara) • ‘The Syncopated Clock’ (Anderson) • ‘The Ragtime Dance’ (Joplin) • Excerpts from ‘Capriccio Espagnol’ (Rimsky-Korsakov) • Joan Sommers also conducted the UMKC group and the accordion orchestra from Maisach in a combined performance of ‘Rhapsodie Andalusia’ (Gotz). Professor Herbert Scheibenreif of Neunkirchen, Austria, assisted with the organisation of the UMKC concerts. |
