Concours & Festival 2011 et 40ème anniversaire de la NZAAby Heather Masefield |
 |
 Le 40ème anniversaire fut un week-end rempli de très bonne musique et de concours. Vous pouvez consulter ici les comptes-rendus 2011 et les photos. South Pacific Daily ReportsUn des points forts a été le concert incroyable de Grayson Masefield, 5 fois champion du monde, qui a interprété un programme musique classique, ainsi que de musique de variété samedi après-midi, qui lui a valu de nombreuses standing ovations. Les concours, durant les journées de samedi et dimanche ont été très intéressants, Campbell Thwaites (image de gauche, au milieu) a terminé premier, devant le champion 2010 Edward Giffney (image de gauche, en bas) et Bor-Kuan Song, troisième. Durant le concert final, nous avons pu entendre les vainqueurs de la compétition, ainsi que d’autres prestations, y compris l’orchestre du 40ème anniversaire, dirigé par Gary Daverne (image ci-dessous). L’évènement s’est terminé par un repas en l’honneur de John Statham. South Pacific Daily Reports |

Eugene Ettore: Site internet en l’honneur du 90ème anniversaire de sa naissance-USAby Rob Howard |
 Le 2 juin 2011, le compositeur et accordéoniste anglais Eugène Ettore (1921-85) aurait eu 90 ans. Il a été l’une des stars de la scène américaine de l’accordéon après la seconde guerre mondiale. En l’honneur de son anniversaire, l’éditeur américain (USA News) Rita Davidson a mis à jour un site web dédié à Ettore, avec de nombreuses photos, et la liste de toutes les recompenses qu’il a recues au cours des ans. Toutes ces récompenses sont sur un mur de la maison de Ettore à Livingston, dans le New Jersey, où sa fille, Carole, et sa famille vivent encore. Eugene Ettore était très proche des légendes italo-américaines de l’accordéon, Pietro Frosini et les frères Deiro, Pietro et Guido. Le CD « Ettore Fantasia », enregistré en 1999 par Pearl Fawcett-Adriano, présente 14 compositions d’Ettore. On espère que la jeune génération d’accordéoniste inclura sa musique dans le répertoire actuel. Prochainement, des mp3 seront ajoutés au site web d’Eugène Ettore, afin de présenter ses compositions, enregistrées par Rita Davidson. Des œuvres inédites seront également publiées sur MusicForAccordion. Pour plus d’informations: Ritabelll@aol.com |
