Чарли Уоткинс (Charlie Watkins – 1923-2014), Лондон – Великобританияby Rob Howard |
 |
 Чарли Уоткинс был одним из самых известных и любимых персонажей на аккордеонной сцене Великобритании, человеком, обладающим многими достоинствами. Основной его деятельностью была аудио-инженерия. Уоткинс был известен на международном уровне благодаря своим усилителям в том числе Watkins Copicat Echo unit, который он изобрел в 1958 году и произвел революцию в музыкальной индустрии по всему миру.В 1949 году совместно со своими братьями Регом и Сидом Чарли основал компанию ‘Watkins Electric Music’ (WEM), которая разрабатывала и изготовляла электрогитары (например, 'Watkins Rapier Guitar’) и была известна в 1960-х и 1970-х годах своими новаторскими системами PA systems для уличных рок-фестивалей. Чарли Уоткинс был звукооператором группы ‘Rolling Stones’ на их знаменитом концерте ‘Stones in the Park’ в 1969 году, а также на концертах Боба Дилана и Джими Хендрикса в Гластонбери в 1970 году. Продукция WEM стала широко использоваться такими артистами, как Элтон Джон, Пол Маккартни, Боб Дилан, Род Стюарт, группами ‘Fleetwood Mac’, ‘The Who’, ‘The Byrds’, ‘Pink Floyd’, ‘Rolling Stones’ и многими другими. В 1980-х годах Чарли Уоткинс прекратил работать с поп-музыкантами и посвятил себя удовлетворению нужд аккордеонистов: разработке и маркетингу спектра усилителей для аккордеона WEM ‘Songbird’ и других продуктов. Усилители WEM ‘Songbird’. Он также выпустил аккордеоны под своим собственным брендом, продавал аксессуары, издавал свой собственный бесплатный журнал ‘Accordion Today’ («Аккордеон Сегодня»). Чарли и его жена Джун внесли существенный вклад в благотворительность. Он был филантропом, отчисляя большую часть своего капитала в пользу других. Чарли Уоткинс, замечательная «личность» с большим чувством юмора, скончался 28 октября 2014 года в возрасте 91 года. У него осталась жена Джун. |

 ‘ConLatinidade’ is inspired by the travels of the Portuguese musician and accordionist João Gentil, especially in Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, Italy and France. This debut album expresses Latin aromas and flavours through the sounds of the accordion, as well as the acordina. These are accompanied by a group violin, piano, bass, and Portuguese guitar players, as well as other guests, such as the voices of Luanda Cozetti, Viviane, Rita Marques, Selma Uamusse, JP Simoes recorded on the album. We can also expect to hear João Gentil’s own voice in this work.This is a unique and outstanding musical selection; a true and moving musical journey conceived and written in Buenos Aires, Argentina and directed and interpreted by João Gentil itself. The whole album was recorded and pre-produced by João Gentil in Buenos Aires during his several stays in the Argentine capital. The post-production stage and remaining recordings were finalized in Coimbra - Portugal. In this work we can also enjoy the presence of the Portuguese Fado guitar in Piazolla’s tango- a true marriage between Tango and Fado, between Argentina and Portugal. The CD available next December on iTunes or by order to email: joaogentil1@gmail.com |
