Манфред Габлер (Manfred Gàbler) получает премию ‘Saxony Merit Award’, Дрезден – Германия

Manfred Gàbler
Впервые премия «Award of Merit of the Free State of Saxony», вручаемая в знак признания выдающегося вклада в развитие различных областей человеческой деятельности на благо Саксонии и ее жителей, была вручена 27 октября 1997 года.

Эта премия может быть вручена местному уроженцу или иностранцу за заслуги в политической, социальной, культурной или экономической деятельности, проводимой в интересах местного населения. Количество награжденных не может превысить 500 человек, и к данному моменту 209 человек оказались удостоенными этой престижной награды.

19 августа 2010 года Манфред Габлер получил эту награду за его долгосрочную деятельность по организации престижнейшего международного аккордеонного конкурса в Клингентале Klingenthal International Accordion Competition.

На церемонии в Государственной Канцелярии Саксонии в Дрездене Манфред Габлер (в центре) получил награду из рук премьер-министра Stanislaw Tillich в присутствии (Klingenthal) мэра Enrico Bräunig (справа) и предыдущего лауреата Reiner Schneidenbach (слева).

Канал Discovery Channel на фабрике Scandalli, Кастельфидардо – Италия

Scandalli
ScandalliВ понедельник 11 октября команда телеканала Discovery Channel провела съемки на аккордеонной фабрике Scandalli Accordion Factory, расположенной в городе Кастельфидардо (Castelfidardo).

Фабрика Scandalli была выбрана в связи с тем, что это известный во всем мире бренд производителя баянов и аккордеонов, а также потому, что все ступени производственного процесса проходят под одной крышей. Это позволило заснять все этапы производства аккордеонов.

Съемки прошли в рамках подготовки к выпуску программы телеканала Discovery под названием “How do they do it” («Как это работает»), которая выйдет в следующем 2011 году и будет показана международной аудитории в 150 миллионов телезрителей.

Несмотря на серьезное представительство русских и французских участников-победителей, конкурсанты из Италии завоевали две победы. одна из них – победа Томаса Арены (Thomas Arena) – стала первой победой Италии в категории D (концертные исполнители без ограничения возраста) за последние 14 лет.

Томмазо Арена (Tommaso Arena) недавно с отличием окончил Консерваторию Conservatory F. Torrefranca Vibo Valentia и сейчас продолжает свое обучение у Марио Стефано Пьетродарки (Mario Stefano Pietrodarchi). Он также является победителем множества национальных и международных конкурсов.

Цель молодого аккордеониста – приобщать публику, в том числе и подрастающее поколение, к нашему инструменту.

Tommy, 104, gives melodeon performance, Newcastle-Upon-Tyne – UK

Tommy SivellAt the age of 104 Tommy Sivell can still hold a tune on his melodeon. Despite being one of the oldest men on Tyneside in the North East of England, the veteran musician loves to entertain in his Kingston Park, Newcastle, care home, to prove he can still play with the pros.

Tommy, who lived in Fawdon, Newcastle, before moving to Cranlea care home, taught himself to play the melodion when he was just 17. Since then, he has gathered a collection of over 30 instruments. He still loves to entertain and, when a banjo band visited Cranlea last week, Tommy couldn’t wait to get up on stage.

So staff organised a special concert in his honour and last week he was the true star of the show. “I’ve never been quite what you would call professional,” said modest Tommy. “I have always loved playing and I like to keep it up. People in the home like to see me playing as well.”
