Successful Yuri Shishkin Concert and Masterclass in Sofia - Bulgariaby Assoc. Prof. Dr. Dobromir Mitev, National Music Academy "Prof. P. Vladigerov" Sofia |
From the 4th to 8th April in Sofia was a very significant event in modern Bulgarian accordion history, with the visit of maestro Yuri Shishkin for a concert and master class. The concert took place in one of the most prestigious halls in Bulgaria (built in XIX century), Sofia University "St. Kliment Ohridski ". The audience in the crowded hall had the pleasure of hearing the exceptional artistry, perfectionism and bright individuality of interpretation by Yuri Shishkin. Listeners who had come from across the country to hear compositions by V. Semionov, S. Rahmaninov, N. Rimsky-Korsakov, P. Tchaikovsky, V. Vlasov, E. Lekuona. The masterclass provoked huge interest from active participants and lecturers/teachers from Bulgarian universities, music schools and music classes. Attended by colleagues from other disciplines, as well as the leadership of the Music Academy, Yuri Shishkin successfully shared his enormous knowledge. With skill and demonstrations showing specific issues of works, methods and means to achieve perfection, the position of arms and body, were some of the main subjects. Attendees found tremendous benefits from the professionalism and information of Yuri Shishkin. I believe that the first visit of Yuri Shishkin to Bulgaria will create new meetings, contacts and enhance accordion development in our country. 7 CD's and eTracks mp3 albums (only €9) available at: Yuri Shishkin |

Osvaldo (AKA Ossie) Mazzei (1913 - 2017), Brisbane - Australiaby Heather Masefield |
Ossie Mazzei at 103 years of age passed away on 13th April 2017 in Brisbane. Picture above at 100 years. Picture left was signed to his friend, Australian composer/accordionist, Peter Piccini in 1959. Ossie Mazzei was born 10 June 1913 on the "Island of Elba", Tuscany, Italy. It was there that he had his first introduction to music with a chromatic button accordion. On his arrival to Australia in 1930 he switched to the piano accordion. In the absence of music for the accordion, Ossie had to rely on arranging piano music. He soon attained recognition as one of Australia's leading accordionists. Ossie was a guest performer with Jim Davidson A.B.C. Dance Band for several months in Sydney and was later with the Tivoli Circuit performing in all major Australian Cities. During World War II, Ossie served with the Australian Army entertainment unit. After discharge from the army he started teaching the accordion and soon had two other teachers helping out. In 1948 Ossie formed an orchestra from his more advanced pupils and toured North Queensland, playing at every major town and receiving standing ovations at most concerts. All members of this orchestra were taught by Ossie Mazzei at his successful accordion school in Fortitude Valley, Brisbane. In 1962 Ossie gave a concert at the Brisbane City Hall which was filled to capacity. The Orchestra presented this time comprised of 80 players and the program included quite a large variety of music. Ossie's successful work in furthering the promotion of the accordion has won him citations from world wide organizations including the Confederation Mondiale De Accordion. In 1996 at the request of Gunther Zeilenger, conductor of the Hofer Akkordeon Symhoniker, Germany, Ossie toured with his accordion orchestra to Germany and Austria where they received standing ovations throughout their tour. His orchestra was formed of past pupils of his school. A total of nine concerts were performed, receiving fantastic receptions at every concert. Funeral service will be held at Little Flower Church, 80 Turner Road, Kedron, Queensland on Thursday, 20th April 2017 at 10:00am. |
