Йошиа Ватанабе (Yoshiya Watanabe) – 1952-2013, Токио – Японияby Rob Howard |
 |
 Йошиа Ватанабе, известный исследователь и коллекционер аккордеонов, исполнитель и теоретик, умер от рака в воскресенье 9 февраля 2013 года в возрасте 60 лет. Он был одним из членов международной группы коллекционеров старых и антикварных инструментов и имел свою собственную большую коллекцию. Он также обладал большими знаниями в аккордеонной области, которыми всегда был готов поделиться с другими.Фото слева 1968 года. Получивший воспитание в Египте, затем в Германии, где он поступил в международную школу Гамбурга, а затем в Токио, где получил высшее образование в области биологии и органической химии в Международном Христианском Университете, Йошиа Ватанабе свободно говорил на немецком и английском языках. Он перевел роман «Грехи аккордеона» (“Accordion Crimes”) на японский язык. Работал в химической промышленности в компанией Mitsui. Одно время Йошиа также жил в Бразилии, где много общался с аккордеонистами. Йошиа начал учиться игре на аккордеоне в Гамбурге в 1966 году и играл как на кнопочном, так и на клавишном . Квалифицированный и практичный человек, в 1985 году Йошиа спроектировал и создал, возможно, первый в мире MIDI аккордеон-синтезатор. Этот инструмент имел меховые сенсоры и был выставлен на Международной научной выставке International Science Expo ’85 в городе Цукуба, Япония. Йошиа Ватанабе также написал две книги об аккордеоне. Йошиа Ватанабе был очень любим и уважаем всеми, кто соприкасался с ним. У него остались жена Кеко, дочь Сакура и сын Тайра. |
