2017 Coupe Mondiale, 5. bis 9. September, Osimo (AN) - Italienby Mirco Soprani |
 |
  Der „Coupe Mondiale“, die sog. Weltmeisterschaft der Akkordeonisten des Akkordeon Weltverbandes C.I.A., findet im Jahre 2017 wieder in Italien statt, und damit fünf Jahre nachdem der Italienische Akkordeonverband (IAC) mit großem Erfolg den Weltwettbewerb im Jahre 2012 in der malerischen Stadt Spoleto ausgetragen hat. Der IAC richtet schon jetzt ein „herzliches Willkommen“ an alle Akkordeonisten in der Welt, vom 5. bis 9. September 2017 nach Osimo, in die Provinz Ancona, Region Marken, zu kommen. Der Bürgermeister von Osimo, Simone Pugnaloni (rechts) „… ist glücklich darüber, eine solche Veranstaltung in Osimo austragen zu können, die der traditionsreichen Stadt und ihren Sehenswürdigkeiten internationale Aufmerksamkeit bescheren wird …“. Osimo ist eine historisch bedeutsame Stadt mit exzellenten Räumlichkeiten, die für ihre großartige Akustik berühmt sind und in denen regelmäßig namhafte internationale Kulturveranstaltungen stattfinden. Dazu gehört unter anderem ein führender internationaler Klavierwettbewerb, der gerade eine Woche vor dem „Coupe Mondiale“ im nächsten Jahr stattfindet. Die gesamte südliche Region in der Provinz Ancona mit den Städten Camerano, Castelfidardo, Filotranno, Loreto, Numana und Sirolo wird eingebunden sein und bereits im Vorfeld des Wettbewerbs im September 2017 zu einer ganzen Reihe von Konzerten auf Werbeveranstaltungen einladen.

AkordioM spielte das Eröffnungskonzert beim 10. Festival "Zlatna Lira", Skopje - Mazedonienby Anica Karakutovska |
 |
 Das Musikfestival „Zlatna Lira“, das von dem Verband der konzertierenden Künstler in Mazedonien veranstaltet wird, feierte in diesem Jahr sein 10jähriges Bestehen. Das Duo „AkordioM“ mit Zorica Karakutovska und Filip Stamevski hatte das Privileg, zur Eröffnungsveranstaltung am 18. Oktober im Museum der Stadt Skopje zu konzertieren.Das Konzertprogramm enthielt u.a. Werke von Johann Sebastian Bach, Antonio Vivaldi, Jewgeni Derbenko, Bete Ilin, Wjatscheslaw Semjonow, Astor Piazzolla und Richard Galliano. Einen Teil der Werke führte das Duo gemeinsam mit Freunden auf, allesamt renommierte Künstlern aus Mazedonien: Marija Gjoševska (Klavier), Zoran Dzorlev (Violine), Aleksandra Kocevska (Gesang), Biljana Petrovska (Klavier), Petar Kolevski (Klarinette), Kosto Todorovski (Akkordeon) und Filip Petreski (Akkordeon). Das Duo konzertierte bereits mit Erfolg in den USA, Italien, Mazedonien, Serbien, Bulgarien usw. Ihr aktuelles Repertoire haben die beiden Musiker im besonderen um eine Reihe neuer Werke des Komponisten Bete Ilin erweitert, in denen die komplexen rhythmischen Strukturen der musikalischen Folklore von Mazedonien mit seinen 5/8-, 7/8- und 9/8-Takten wunderbar zutage treten. Die in zeitgenössischem Stil gehaltenen Kompositionen finden ihre Inspiration in der mazedonischen Volksmusik. Das Festival „Zlatna Lira“ ging am 1. November zu Ende und hat seinen Hauptzweck, nämlich die Bewerbung und Vorstellung mazedonischer Künstler und Musik, vorzüglich erfüllt. |

Renyo Ruggiere stellt 2 neue e-Jazz Bücher vor - ITALIENby Harley Jones |
  Von Renzo Ruggieri erschienen zwei eBooks (PDF-Format), die per E-Mail verschickt werden können.Italien: Zehn Ansätze zur Improvisation (Jazz) E-Book - Cataloguing: rrenzo421 Englisch: 10 Ansätze zur Jazz Improvisation eBook - Katalog: rrenzo401 Renzo Ruggieri schreibt: "Dieser Text stammt aus der Notwendigkeit, eine praktische Methode für Improvisation zu zeigen (nicht nur Jazz), einmal erworben, wird es zur grundlegenden theoretischen Kenntniss. Oft konzentrieren sich regelmäßig Jazz Kurse auf Theorie, seine Anwendbarkeit und vernachlässigen den praktischen Aspekt; manchmal ist das theoretische System so überwältigend, dass der Student kämpft, um das grundlegende Element der Improvisation oder der Schaffung seiner persönlichen Ausdrucksweise zu erfassen. Zu wissen, was zu tun ist (und was nicht zu tun) ist nicht genug. Um eine authentische Improvisation auszuführen ist notwendig, eine große Anzahl von Songs zu kennen, sie zu kennen und gleichzeitig zu vergessen - fast ein Brainstorming - das heißt, sich jeglicher Vorbestimmung und Abgrenzungen zu befreien und jede Möglichkeit für seine eigene Ausdruckskraft auszunützen und seine pragmatische Krativität walten zu lassen. Online. English: 10 Approaches to Jazz Improvisation eBook - Catalog: rrenzo401 Italian: Dieci Approcci All’Improvvisazione (Jazz) eBook - Catalog: rrenzo421 |

| This year’s Midland Accordion Festival, held at The Quality Hotel, Dudley, November 4th to 7th, was a great success, with large numbers enjoying a weekend of varied accordion entertainment from Jean Dauvin (France), Steve Roxton, Bruno Continenza (Italy), David Lukins, Jovan Rnjak, Helen Rich, Rosemary Wright, Nigel Pasby & Helen Newton, Alan Young, Harry Hussey, Malachy Cairns, The Kennet Accordion Orchestra (MD Nigel Pasby), and the Master Butchers Band. There were many highlights, such as Jean Dauvin’s musette music, David Lukins’ accordion specialities performed in his very individual style, the ever popular Harry Hussey’s jazz, and a superb concert from the Kennet AO, whose performance of ‘Skyfall’, ‘Thunderbirds March’, ‘Field of Gold’, and ‘Intermezzo Sinfonico’ (from the opera ‘Cavalleria Rusticana’), all arranged by Nigel Pasby, were exceptional. The festival workshops included: Rosemary Wright - Intermediate Orchestra, Elementary Orchestra – Jean Hanger, Vintage Orchestra – Jean Hanger, Scottish Orchestra – Angie Lukins, and Sue Bennett - One to One tuition. The weekend orchestras gave excellent performances on Sunday afternoon, all achieving good results from their limited rehearsal time. The trade show includes the Birmingham Accordion Centre, Rob Howard Publications, Alan Shute – accordinas, accordions and extras, Roy Hendrie – MIDI, and Harry Kipling’s accordions and souvenirs. Trade was brisk, and many sales deals were done. The festival was exceedingly well organised by accordionist Barry Smith, whose Master Butchers Band closed the festival on Sunday evening with an hour of joyful lunacy. The dates for next year’s festival are November 3rd to 5th 2017. For further information email: bsentmusic@gmx.com |
