 Новости этой недели выходят 6 мая, в день, объявленный Международной Конфедерацией Аккордеонистов (CIA) Всемирным Днем Аккордеона в честь празднования даты, в которую в 1829 году в Вене Кириллом Дэмианом был запатентован аккордеон.Наш ресурс освещает проходящие по всему миру события, приуроченные к этой дате. Моим собственным вкладом в этом году стал выход книги «Антология аккордеона», которая опубликована d Великобритании и после 6 мая будет доступна для заказа через наш ресурс ‘Accordions Worldwide’. Как бы вы ни проводили Всемирный День Аккордеона, я надеюсь, вы наслаждаетесь аккордеонной музыкой. Во многих отношениях мир, в котором мы живем, это мрачное и серьезное место, и те из нас, кто играет на аккордеоне, имеют свой собственный антидот благодаря замечательному и невероятно универсальному инструменту. Как красиво говорят французы: “Vive l'accordéon”!! |

Концерт, посвященный Всемирному Дню Аккордеона, Москва – Россияby Alexander Selivanov |
 |
 На прошлой неделе, в очень престижном зале состоялся необычайно интересный специальный концерт с участием баяна, чего никогда ранее не случалось. Этот концерт был посвящен Всемирному Дню Аккордеона.Местом проведения концерта стала сцена Большого Зала Московской государственной консерватории им. Чайковского, являющаяся одной из самых престижных и хорошо известных сцен классической музыки в мире. С 1901 года пианисты, скрипачи, дирижеры и солисты самого высокого уровня выступали на этой знаменитой сцене. Появиться там даже в оркестре или с коротким сольным выступлением уже большая честь. Выступить же с сольным концертом – уникально. И особенно эта сцена важна для баянистов и аккордеонистов, поскольку этот инструмент так редко появлялся здесь за всю долгую историю. Возможно, впервые в истории баян появился в полноценном вечернем концерте в двух отделениях. Михаил Бурлаков, доцент РАМ им. Гнесиных, со своим ансамблем "ClassicForum" выступил в первом отделении концертной программы, исполнив музыку Астора Пьяццоллы. Во второй отделении концерта принял участие камерный хор Московской консерватории и камерный ансамбль студии «Новая музыка», в состав которого вошли баянисты Михаил Бурлаков и Александр Селиванов. Дирижировал Александр Соловьев. Состоялась московская премьера танго-мессы "Misa a Buenos Aires" аргентинского композитора Мартина Пальмиери. Это музыка на стыке жанров мессы и танго. Большой зал Московской государственной консерватории им. Чайковского на более чем 1 700 мест в этот вечер был полон. |

 ‘Maria de Buenos Aires’, an opera written by Astor Piazzolla, will be performed in The Vaults, Leake Street, Waterloo, London SE1, on six dates in May and June. Tickets £25.The dates include May 6th, 7th, 13th, 14th, and June 3rd and 4th. Doors at 10pm – Performance starts at 10.30pm. For those who would like to tango into the wee hours there will be an after party till 2am. The advance publicity says: Descend into the Vaults and mingle with the lowlife of old Buenos Aires: thieves, card sharps, pimps and whores. The Narrator will relate the story of the maestro of the bandoneon, Piazzolla’s muse, María, a prostitute born in the slums “one day when God was drunk … with a curse in her voice.” Maria is seduced by the rhythms of the tango and soon becomes “the most sorcerous singer and lover” in Buenos Aries. But her “fatal passion” arouses the wrath of the languishing Piazzolla, who, driven to madness by Maria’s unrelenting freedom, conspires with a group of robbers and brothel madames to murder her. After her death, her Shadow returns to haunt the sordid streets she once walked, and only then does Piazzolla realise the error of his ways: “Maria is music!” A modern day Passion Play, full of religious allusions and black humour, set to a soundtrack of tangos, milongas and waltzes. This intimate 90-minute masterpiece featuring an 11 piece orchestra will be presented in the setting of an abandoned carnival. After the performance guests who, like María herself, refuse to depart the scene will be invited to tango into the small hours at our after show party. |
