World Accordion Orchestra IX posterВ рамках фестиваля Loviisa Sibelius пройдет концерт в церкви Porvoo в Финляндии 8 сентября 2017 года в 19:00. На концерте будет представлена ​музыкальная премьера - одна из последних работ одного из самых известных композиторов Финляндии, профессора Аулиса Саллинен (1935 г.).

Сочинение для аккордеона, скрипки, виолончели и фортепиано было написано в честь 50-летия финского аккордеониста Мики Вяйринен (Mika Väyrynen). Ноты предваряет текст: «Это произведение написано мной в качестве подарка на день рождения моему другу-музыканту Мике Вяйринен».

Это уже шестая пьеса пофессора Саллиненома, написанная для Мики: сотрудничество исполнителя и композитора длится уже 15 лет.

Мировая премьера "Dance Music Suite Op. 107" для аккордеона, скрипки, виолончели и фортепиано будет исполнена Мики В. и другими музыкантами - Элиной Вахаля (скрипка), Яном-Эриком Густафссоном (виолончель; он также художественный руководитель фестиваля Loviisa Sibelius) и Paavali Jumppanen (фортепиано).

Эта сюита является одной из шести новых работ, написанных для Мики Вяйринен в честь его 50-летия (7 октября 2017 года) и 100-летия независимости Финлян дии. Остальные пять работ - также мировые премьеры, которые прозвучат на предстоящем концерте 11 октября 2017 года в зале «Камерата» музыкального центра "Хельсинки" в честь юбилея музыканта.

Review: Classic Kyiv Duo Concert @ Black Country Accordion Club, West Midlands – UK

Kyiv Duo
The Black Country Accordion Club organiser Lou Ambrose writes: Once again this fabulous duo, the Classic Kyiv Duo, made the journey to visit this country and our club for a very special concert. 

We all look forward to Igor and Oleksiy calling to see us during their annual tour and all the preparations were made in advance for this fund raising event. As we anticipated we had almost a full house and everything was in place for the grand raffle and the anticipated auction. Thanks to the generosity of members and a local businessman we had a good selection of goods ranging from a vacuum cleaner, whiskey, champagne down to a dancing duck.

Ray Izod opened the proceedings with a selection of popular tunes. He now makes a fairly regular appearance at the club and now seems to be settling in as one of our regular entertainers.
  
So, Igor Sayenko and Oleksiy Kolomoiets, known as the Classic Accordion Duo began their concert. These guys still devote their tour to the Hipokrat Society and we know that by now what a wonderful job this charity does. The expected interval very quickly arrived indeed and as soon as everyone had enjoyed the refreshments the fundraising began.

The draw for the Tote and the Raffle were soon over and the auction began, and thanks to everyone who made the effort to donate the goods and prizes do seem rather inadequate. Well done one and all. The Duo completed the second half of their repertoire to a standing ovation once again. ‘The Flight of the Bumblebee’ and their version of ‘The Waltz of the Flowers’ had drawn the most enthusiastic round of applause that evening.
 
The evening was a great success with an excellent turnout with a number of new faces in the audience and we were very pleased to donate the sum of £742 to a very worthy cause.

On Monday August 28th, 8pm, our guest is the versatile accordionist Jovan Rnjak, with Roy Nock on the drums.
