Ручная сумочка в виде аккордеона от Braccialini, Флоренция – Италия

Accordion Handbag by Braccialini
В одной из крупных итальянских газет “La Repubblica” от 19 сентября была опубликована занявшая четверть страницы реклама компании Braccialini, которая представила новый дизайн своей ручной сумки в виде аккордеона.

Во всех деталях рассмотреть дизайн новой сумочки можно на фото. На сайте компании висит симпатичная фраза: “Nella Borsa c'è tutta la tua vita...” – Carla Braccialini, что можно примерно перевести как: «В вашей сумочке вся ваша жизнь ..." – Карла Браккьялини.

Карла Браккьялини – производитель ручных сумочек из Флоренции, которая также делала сумочки в виде других инструментов, например, скрипки. Сумки в виде аккордеона будут продаваться по всему миру.

Компания также подарила один экземпляр сумочки в Аккордеонный Музей Кастельфидардо.

Международный мастер-класс Вячеслава Семенова, Александра Селиванова, Юлии Америковой и Антонио Спаккаротеллы (Antonio Spaccarotella) – Италия, Россия

Фото вверху: Антонио Спаккаротелла и Вячеслав Семенов.

Новый мульти-проект итальянского аккордеониста Антонио Спаккаротеллы “Accordion Advance”, целью которого является выявление, образование и продвижение молодых музыкантов Калабрии, начался с ряда мероприятий и налаживания контактов. Проект осуществляется при поддержке спонсоров, таких как Scandalli Accordions, предприятий Кастельфидардо и важных международных учебных заведений.

Цель проекта – достижение художественного прогресса, улучшение музыкального образования и развитие профессиональной компетентности молодых музыкантов Калабрии.

Первым мероприятием проекта стал мастер-класс известного композитора, народного артиста России, профессора одного из самых престижных музыкальных ВУЗов России РАМ им. Гнесиных Вячеслава Семенова.

Мастер-класс прошел в великолепном зале музея “Museum dei Bretti” в палаццо “Palazzo del trono di Cetraro”. Кроме Вячеслава Семенова мастер-класс дали старший преподаватель РАМ им. Гнесиных Александр Селиванов, лауреат международных конкурсов, преподаватель Юлия Америкова и, конечно, организатор семинара – Антонио Спаккаротелла. Фото ниже – участники семинара и преподаватели.

В семинаре также приняли участие студенты аккордеонного класса центра Nuove Armonie di Paola (руководитель Alberto La Neve). Этот музыкальный центр на протяжении многих лет имеет один из самых многочисленных аккордеонных классов в Италии. В центре обучают классической, современной, джазовой музыке, исполнительству на академических и электронных баянах и аккордеонах, а также диатонических гармониках.

В заключение начальник управления культуры Четраро Dr. Fabio Angilica подписал договоренность о сотрудничестве с преподавателями РАМ им. Гнесиных. Надеемся, что со временем город Четраро станет международным центром по обучению игре на баяне, аккордеоне и гармониках, а в городских афишах появится множество аккордеонных событий, гостей и преподавателей со всего мира.

Jerry Mayes (1923-2012), Essex – UK

Jerry Mayes, Margaret Kelsey, Gary Blair, Jean Hanger
Jerry MayesJerry Mayes, a long time accordionist and teacher, died on September 14th at Southend General Hospital, Essex. He was 89 years old, and had been suffering with cancer for some years. Fellow accordionist Tony Compton said of Jerry, "We have lost a lovely, lovely man".

The cause and development of the accordion in Great Britain owes a great deal to Jerry Mayes. Trained at the British College of Accordionists in London in the 1930s and 40s by Ivor Beynon and Graham Romani, Jerry Mayes became one of his country’s leading performers, then an organiser, teacher and examiner. Based at Southend-on-Sea, he attained both ABCA (TD) and LBCA diplomas from the BCA, plus an A.Mus from the London College of Music, and became an examiner of the BCA and the Leicester School of Music (for guitar).

Jerry taught the piano accordion, keyboards, electronic organ and classical guitar, and prepared students up to diploma level. He once said, “I know people take fright at the idea of preparing for an examination, but in most cases it’s the best way to get to know how to play your instrument properly.” Jerry also ran ensemble classes where students played together and acquired the skills of group performance.

Always forward thinking in his approach, Jerry once commented, “The accordion has come a long way, and I am so pleased that at last it is being accepted into our national music colleges. There is still a lot to be achieved. Professor Owen Murray has lit the beacon for present and future generations of accordionists to follow. I am convinced that free bass instruments are here to stay.

Whatever system of accordion playing you have grown up with, the main thing is to ensure that you have a good instrument to play and that you always aim to play well. Work hard and you will succeed, whatever make and system of instrument you have chosen.”

Jerry Mayes was at the heart of the accordion’s development throughout latter half of the 20th Century, and his contribution was considerable.
