| On Sunday January 13th, some 40 accordion teachers, accordionists and supporters met at the Royal Academy of Music in London with a view to forming an association for accordion teachers in the UK. They came from as far as Scotland in the north to the south coast, and from Exeter in the west to East Anglia. The atmosphere was one of enthusiasm and the meeting, chaired by Janet and Romano Viazzani discussed a constitution and a way forward during some five hours of debating, broken only for a coffee break. A short musical interlude was given by Bartosz Glowacki and Xian Gao, two of the students at the RAM. A further meeting is planned in the next 6-7 months to elect an executive committee and approve a constitution. It is hoped that the association will enable teachers to refresh their skills through training programs as well as provide a voice for teachers in the wider musical spectrum.
