 On the 3rd of May in the city of Siauliai, Lithuanian accordionists celebrated an important occasion – World Accordion Day and also gathered for a traditional conference and gala concert. The Lithuanian Accordionist Association’s Youth section under the guidance of the President Raimondas Sviackevicius, organizes a project ‘Nauji Vejai’ (‘Winds of Change). This was the second ‘Winds of Change’ event. During the conference, accordionists interacted via internet with famous accordion teacher Frédéric Deschamps and his students from his international accordion school. The members of LAA Youth section discussed the ideas of creating future opportunities for young accordionists in their country and abroad. This whole day event concluded with a substantial concert in the City Cultural Centre. The concert included various works by most famous composers and covered many contrasting styles. The very talented young and already famous and acknowledged Lithuanian accordionists: N. Bakula, A. Mikalkenas, R. Morkunas, A. Pazniokas, R. Erniulis, R. Kardušaite, J. Gecaite, M.Levickis, T.

| On May 4, Frédéric Deschamps was invited by Raimondas Sviackevicius, President of the "youth" section of the National Association of Lithuanian accordionists and Director at the Accordion Conservatory of Vilnius for a unique Master Class, via the Internet. At 1:30 pm, students in the class of accordion questioned Frédéric Deschamps about various aspects of pedagogy as it has developed in recent years, the mode of operation with many foreign students, international events that he regularly attends, and also about the various possibilities for development of the instrument's repertoire, its place in the world of music and professional openings available with our instrument in the near future. The talented Martynas Levickas opened the Master Class session. Martynas also intervened at the end of his Master Class with a series of very pertinent questions about the adaptation of teaching techniques of Frédéric Deschamps for the piano accordion and the latter's interest in chamber music, a large and very interesting subject which should be developed as one of the major ways for the future of our instrument. Frédéric Deschamps as a teacher and also President of the Confédération Mondiale de l'Accordéon (CMA) sincerely hopes that this discipline is an integral part of the Trophée Mondial in the near future. Morkunas Romas, also a student of Raimondas Sviackevicius, interpreted the Divertimento by Kusiakov, followed by another young student, Paulauskas Simaunas interpreting music of André Astier. These are extremely interesting initiatives using skype/web technology to have an international master class and also permit debate between two countries with such different cultures. Such communications shows the immense future possibilities that modern communications can bring, via this new teaching tool, for the future advancement of accordion teaching. Petar Maric, a student Frederic Deschamps, performed the world premiere of the new work, "Haiti" by Franck Angelis, to add another exciting dimension to this international sharing of knowledge and music. Other meetings, master classes and concerts will be organized by Raimondas Sviackevicius during 2010 as well as live concerts via the Internet. The aim is to decentralize, having such activities in small towns so that information is not exclusively reserved for university students in the capital, further enhancing the sharing of knowledge through modern communications. |

| Vivant! teamed with World Accordion Champion, Grayson Masefield to perform an exciting and interesting program for an appreciative audience recently in Kansas City. For this celebration concert, the festive stage was decorated in turquoise and silver balloons, turquoise being the color of the day. Masefield took the stage and his energetic presentation and virtuosic passagework wowed the crowd. He shared some interesting tidbits about the works he performed to the delight of the audience. Vivant! kept things lively by presenting fresh new works and arrangements by their Musical Director, Karen Fremar, while rolling out their new CD, ‘Whatever You Do’. Vivant! is loaded with hot percussion and brass which supports the accordions and a unique blend of interesting electronic sounds on keyboards. Vivant! members include Dee Sligar - bass keyboard, Gail Overly – accordion, Julie Silfverberg - accordion/keyboard, Karen Fremar - accordion/keyboard, Sarrah Cantrell - percussion/mallets/keyboard, and Janne Silfverberg - trombone/percussion. Hannah Cantrell assisted the group as auxiliary percussionist for this concert. Fremar explained that ‘Sterling Illusions’, a new work for trombone, vibraphone and accordion, was commissioned by group trombonist, Janne Silfverberg, and was premiered the previous week at his senior trombone performance recital. ‘Herricks Road’, the recent work commissioned by the American Accordionists' Association for Faithe Deffner's Lifetime Achievement Award, was presented by Vivant! in a new setting that employed additional percussion, accordion, bass, and keyboard strings and woodwinds. Following Masefield's variety program segment, Fremar took a few moments to interview him - asking him to share with the audience some of the special aspects of his concert accordion, and also to describe a typical day in his training regimen in France. "We hit the first note at 6 am," Masefield told the astonished audience, "and after a break of a couple of hours for lunch, we practised into the evening, with a lesson at 9 or 10pm each evening." Vivant! then presented Masefield with a Vivant! T-shirt and a Kansas University hat, making him an ‘Honorary Vivanter’, as the crowd erupted into cheers and warm applause. Both Vivant! and Masefield left their audience enthused and wanting more as they were greeted with several standing ovations and encore requests. The final treat of the afternoon of musical surprises was an impromptu duo of International Entertainment Champions Masefield and Fremar with Vivant! backing them in an electric version of Piazzolla's ‘Libertango For a complete report, visit the Vivant website or for further information email: vivant@vivantsound.com |

| The European Forum on Music, held in cooperation by the European Music Council (EMC), the Austrian Music Council and the University of Music and Performing Arts in Vienna, April 15th to 18th, was an event that will surely linger in the participants‘ minds for a long time to come. The theme of the forum, itself titled ‘Musical Diversity: Looking back, Looking forward’, encouraged the delegates, who came from nearly 30 countries, to reflect on how musical diversity had developed over the past decade and how they and their organisations could help shape the future. Discussions took place regarding the roles that education, the digital environment, the EU 2020 Strategy, the UNESCO Convention on the Protection and Promotion of the Diversity of Cultural Expressions and the role that cities have in promoting musical diversity. Conclusions and recommendations that resulted from these discussions include the idea that the concept of ‘culture impact assessment’ should be introduced, that regulators should have to prove that their measures have positive effects, that EMC members should focus on the field of music education in their activities, that the EMC should play a key role in redefining the UNESCO Roadmap for Arts Education and that advocacy work be governmentally holistic, going beyond the ministries of culture and education. Apart from the discussions and presentations, the Austrian Music Council and the University of Music and Performing Arts, Vienna, gave delegates the opportunity to experience Vienna’s musical diversity first hand with performances from the university’s students, a concert of new Viennese music at the legendary Porgy and Bess Jazz Club and a stunning performance by the Wiener Symphoniker at the world famous Musikverein. Alongside the forum, elections for the EMC Board 2010–2012 were held. The new board consists of Timo Klemettinen (Finland), Christian Höppner (Germany), Stef Coninx (Belgium), Erling Aksdal (Norway), Helena Maffli-Nissinen (Switzerland/Finland), Frank Stahmer (Austria) and Kaie Tanner (Estonia), as well as a co-opted Working Group Youth member of Claire Goddard (UK/Germany). |
