Bayanists Perform Under Balcony, in Front of Berlioz House, La Côte St-André - France

Ainhoa Zuazua, Pierre Cussac, Elodie Soulard and  Yuri Shishkin
Elodie Soulard and Yuri ShishkinFrom August 18th to 28th the very famous Berlioz Festival was held in the town of La Côte St-André, where the composer Hector Berlioz (1803-1869) was born. During the 10 days there were performances of Berlioz compositions by many of the best orchestras and soloists in France. There was other music also, with three concerts daily.

This year the Festival Berlioz invited French accordionist Elodie Soulard to organize 6 concerts around ‘Music by Berlioz transcribed for accordions’. Yuri Shishkin, Elodie Soulard and Pierre Cussac (accordions) played fragments of the operas ‘Les Troyens’, ‘La Damnation de Faust’, ‘Béatrice et Bénédict’, of the symphony ‘Roméo et Juliette’, and the whole cycle of melodies ‘Nuits d'été’ (soprano was Ainhoa Zuazua - picture above). All these pieces by Berlioz were transcribed for 2 or 3 accordions by Elodie Soulard.

Concerts were given every evening in front of the house were Berlioz was born on December 11th 1803 and lived to his 18th year, before an audience of about 200 people sitting in the garden. There was a theme each day like: ‘Berlioz and songs’, ‘Berlioz and Russia’, and ‘Berlioz and his friends’, where the public could also hear transcriptions performed solo by myself of works by Tchaikovsky, Schubert, Liszt, Moussorgsky, and Rimsky-Korsakov.

The accordionists were very successful, although the music by Berlioz shouldn't ever be heard on bayan! The public were impressed by the high level of performances and the sound quality of the 3 bayans. Some spectators testified, that they could easily hear the sounds of different instruments from the symphony orchestra during the performances. Picture right - Elodie Soulard performing, Yuri Shishkin is examining an original Berlioz score.

The conditions of the open-air concerts were not always comfortable. At the festival end, there was a violent storm and the lightning broke one the walls of the town's old castle. However, even with the rain and cold, the audience still came to the concert with unbelievable interest, curiosity and a love of music.

My participation in the Festival Berlioz was one of the most impressive experiences in my life. With my birthday on August 24th, playing under the balcony of Berlioz's house, I was incredibly happy!

6 CD's by Yuri Shishkin available online.

John Connolly Bows Out, Ohio – USA

John ConnollyRenowned Irish singer and button accordionost John Connolly has announced his retirement after a 50-year career of performing. Playing professionally since he was 15, John Connolly has graced stages throughout Ireland, England, Canada and the US, listing many musical greats among his acquaintances.

“I would like to announce that after 50 years as a musician, singer and entertainer I have officially retired,” he posted on his website. “I really enjoyed making people happy as they sang and danced when we performed. I thank everyone who supported me and my music for half a century.”

Toledo, Ohio-based Connolly, aged 65, grew up in the village of Castleconnell in County Limerick before emigrating to the US, where he worked for the Chrysler Corporation before later serving as community service director for United Auto Workers.

He became a bar owner in 1978, opening John Connolly’s Irish Pub and Gossips. During this time, he would tour the country playing traditional Irish music, even taking trips back to his homeland to perform.

Comically, if John Connolly has any regrets, one would be singing the Irish classic ‘Danny Boy’ against his will, he told the local newspaper Toledo Blade.

“There was one song I hated: 'Danny Boy’,” he laughed. “Every place I went people wanted to hear 'Danny Boy,' sometimes three or four times. And you had to do it and you had to pretend like you liked it.”

Connolly, who has released four CDs over the years, plans to continue his work on ‘Echoes of Ireland’, a Sunday morning radio show he hosts on WCWA-AM 1230.
