Всемирный оркестр аккордеонистов IX под управлением Джоана Соммерса, Coupe Mondiale, Италияby Kevin Friedrich, CIA Ambassador |
 |
 Почти десять лет назад Международная ассоциация аккордеонистов (CIA) анонсировала дебют Всемирного оркестра аккордеонистов на конкурсе Кубок мира (Coupe Mondiale) 2007 года под управлением профессора Joan Sommers. Сегодня Итальянская организация аккордеонистов (IAC) с радостью объявляет, что выступления Всемирного оркестра аккордеонистов IX состоятся в итальянском городе Осимо в рамках 70-го фестиваля Coupe Mondiale. Всемирный оркестр аккордеонистов IX исполнит три произведения на Гала-концерте 10 сентября 2017 года в Осимо. Первая работа «Omaggio a Pietro Overture» Пьетро Фрозини - достойная дань уважения ранним итальянским пионерам аккордеона в Соединенных Штатах. Фрозини и Дейро (писали оригинальную музыку, на которой и основано новое произведение Фрозини) и Галла-Рини (подготовил аранжировку для Оркестра аккордеонистов) были первыми в американском аккордеонном движении. Два других попурри - узнаваемые мелодии из известных голливудских фильмов «La La Land» Джастина Гурвица и «Красавица и чудовище» Алана Менкена.

 Video published on Jul 2, 2017. This very innovative performance was at the festival "Accordion Plus" in the big hall of the Rostov State Musical Theater, Rostov-on-Don as part of the concert by Alexander Poeluev and New-Centropezn Jazz Quintet.The combination of J.S. Bach (Prelude in Cm) and A. Piazzolla (Libertango), performed on one accordion by five musicians was inventive and unique and also a hit with the audience. Performers: Alexander Poeluev, Nikita Seryogin, Mikhail Starodubtsev, Carolina Desyatnikova, Eduard Abrahamyan. Liza Poelueva had the idea to play 1 accordion - 8 hands. She wrote: "We rehearsed this piece firstly in duet at home together with Sasha, trying to find new ways and the possibility of playing with many hands. It was really fun." Liza Poelueva also wrote about ideas. (English transation): "How come the ideas? Ideas, such an interesting thing, someone is after them chasing, someone is looking for them, someone is stealing, and someone is selling. Ideas are something special in the history of mankind, what underlies the evolution, the development of civilization. For people of creative professions, interesting ideas are especially valuable. Ideas was how the idea to play the one accordion by a few performers was created? We just live in the search for new solutions, ideas on how to draw people's attention to a young, complex, but such an interesting instrument - the accordion. The desire to interest young people, to support the accordion, to inspire us to search for new techniques, the performance techniques, has been driving us for many years. Probably, that's why God sends different ideas, and we have to worry a lot to not only prepare an unusual concert number, but also record it and share it with the world." |

 John Jones MBE, who was awarded the MBE for raising over £250,000 for charities by playing the accordion in public places, has just collected two unconnected awards and also celebrated his 75th birthday on June 2nd. The East Cheshire Hospice made a presentation to John for reaching £75,000 on their behalf, plus a birthday cake.The other award is the Paul Harris Fellowship, inferred by Ray Kramer, President of the Rotary Club of Macclesfield for the commitment that John has shown over the last 27 years in raising funds for many local organisations. Having taken early retirement from his job as a structural engineer, John decided to put his skills as an accordionist to good use, starting in 1991 by raising money for the MAST Appeal at Macclesfield Hospital. The Paul Harris award was established 60 years ago in 1957 in honour of the Founder of Rotary, so as to express appreciation and recognition of an outstanding commitment to Rotary or to the Community. Other recipients of this award include Mother Teresa, US President Jimmy Carter, Astronaut James Lovell, UN Secretary-General Javier Perez de Cuellar, and the American actress and singer Pearl Bailey. New Zealand composer, arranger and conductor Gary Daverne has also received this prestigious award. John is somewhat bemused by comparisons with Mother Teresa! |
