Gary Dahl (1937 - 2017), Puyallup - WA

Gary DahlEiner der bekanntesten Akkordeon-Arrangeure Amerikas mit mehr als einem Dutzend Büchern, die zur Zeit von Mel Bay veröffentlicht werden, plus 10 beliebte eBooks und mehr als 200 Solo-Arrangements, die online verkauft werden, am 2. Dezember verstorben.

Gary Dahl war ein bekannter Lehrer, virtuoser Akkordeonist sowie Komponist, Arrangeur und Aufnahmekünstler.

Seine Tochter, die professionelle Musikerin Leesa Dahl, schrieb: "Mein Vater, der große Gary Dahl, ist heute früh friedlich, aber unerwartet zu Hause in Puyallup, WA, gestorben. Er hatte es gerade auf 80 geschafft, obwohl er mir immer versprochen hatte, dass er bis mindestens 120 leben würde.

Er war ein Veteran, ein Pilot, ein Jazz-Virtuose, Arrangeur, renommierter Pädagoge, aber am schönsten für unsere Familie - er liebte meine süße Mutter und mich.

Ich bin immer noch völlig schockiert, aber wenn ich zu Weihnachten zu Hause bin, werde ich seine Weihnachtslieder spielen und ich hoffe, er hört zu. "

Extra Italy Trip in 2018 to Castelfidardo – Italy

Castelfidardo
Trip organiser Peter Le Geyt writes:

"Many of you will have seen the details of the accordion visits to Castelfidardo I arrange each year including the visit in May 2018. I have since been asked to organise a private visit to Castelfidardo, June 18th – 22nd 2018, for a small group of ladies from a UK Accordion orchestra.

The group consists of 2 couples and 6 other ladies. They have agreed to open it up to a few other people to help share the costs. The maximum group number would be 18.  Travel is with British Airways from London to Bologna (other UK airports may be possible). Extra night or two is also possible in Bologna if required. 

It is a flexible programme not dissimilar to the May trip, including visits to major accordion manufacturers and some of the smaller factories. As for May, high quality accordions will be supplied for the group to play during the stay. Various optional visits and non-accordionists who like the accordion would also find plenty to enjoy."

Ryanair and the French Accordion Player – Republic of Ireland

Francois Colussi on Ryan Air
Francois ColussiThe following true story was reported in the Irish news website www.independent.ie.
As headlines go, it was perfect. 'Ryanair flight attendant asks man to open bag... and soon the whole flight is singing.'

It promised. It intrigued. It delivered.

When you clicked, you were rewarded with a genuinely heart-warming scene. A confused Frenchman on a Ryanair flight from Dublin to Nice, asked to reveal the contents of a bag on his lap... and plucking out a "squeeze box".

"What is this? An accordion?" one of the flight attendants asked. "This is an Irish company and you have to play the accordion."

So he did. And soon a plane-load of passengers joined in.
Since then, the video has been viewed almost 20 million times on Facebook alone, and featured in publications ranging from Ireland to the UK, US and India.

"Meanwhile in Ireland... Ryanair are no United Airlines," quipped The Irish Post, referring to the now-infamous incident in which passenger David Dao was dragged down the aisle of a United aircraft, before being removed from the flight.

"It was just this little moment of magic," says Francois Colussi, the man at the centre of the video, sharing his story exclusively with Independent.ie Travel.

But was the video a genuine moment, or a pre-rehearsed PR stunt, as some on social media have suggested? What was the real story behind it?

Colussi lives in Ireland, where he runs the Pure Magic kitesurfing centres in Achill Island and Dublin, as well as the city's Battle for the Bay watersports festival. While travelling to Nice, he says he bumped into a friend - Clontarf businessman Ronan Morris, of Together Digital - and the two managed to switch seats for a chat.

It was then that the plan for mischief was hatched.

"It was a little magic trick," Colussi says. Shortly afterwards, the pair were asking the Ryanair crew "if they had five minutes to do something unusual. We were worried that the stewards would not allow it, but they were very enthusiastic... I mentioned the United Airlines incident, and the idea we had to show how we do things differently in Ireland. They loved the idea!"

A few minutes later, the two cabin crewmembers approached Colussi and asked what was in his bag. "They were very convincing," he says.

The moment itself was improvised, he adds. Asked to play a song, Colussi struck up the opening bars of 'Dirty Old Town', made famous by The Pogues, just a few minutes before the plane was due to begin its final descent.

Unlike other recent airline cabin encounters, this one ended happily with some off-key singing from Morris... clapped along by dozens of fellow passengers.

What did Ryanair think of it all? "As Europe's most punctual airline, Ryanair customers are already used to hearing our on-time arrival music on landing," the airline told Independent.ie Travel. "All onboard enjoyed this extra bonus track mid–flight."
"There was no intention whatsoever to gain money or to look for fame," Colussi says. "It was just this little moment of magic to make people think... and smile."

He describes it as "a parody" of negative passenger incidents
Publicity for Pure Magic and the Battle for the Bay festival, due to take place in Dublin next weekend (battleforthebay.com), won't hurt of course.

"So, yes it was a set up but a pretty random one!"

Video: New Renzo Ruggieri Composition La Vita Delle Cose Released - Italy

"La Vita Delle Cose (The Life of Things): Things do not have life. But things tell of life by their existence and through this they acquire it. Five moments built with solutions that combine the composer's jazz, world and classical experiences and which need the sonority of the solo accordion also called upon to improvise.

The flow of life is symbolised by a march increasingly rich in melodic-rhythmic events (things), up to the final climax."
