| Alex Cadogan, based in Derbyshire, UK, has recently acquired the personal career scrapbooks and the 1961 CIA competitors’ medal previously belonging to Charles ‘Chiz Bishop’ (1927-2000), one of Britain’s greatest competitive accordionists. Chiz Bishop became the All Britain Advanced Solo Champion in 1937 at just ten years of age, then after a fourteen year hiatus due to World War Two and army service, won two more Advanced titles and an incredible seven All-Britain Virtuoso titles, spanning a period of 25 years, 1937 to 1962. Chiz went on to became a professional accordionist and organist. Alex is seeking recordings made by Chiz Bishop, and would be grateful for any assistance.
