Seacroft 2018, Norfolk – UK

David Lukins
Seacroft PosterHeather SmithThe Seacroft 2018 accordion festival, organised by Heather Smith (picture right), took place at Richardson’s Beach Resort, Hemsby, Norfolk, from September 13th to 17th. The music was great throughout, and also varied, with everything from opera to jazz, and much else in between.

The chief guest was David Lukins (picture above), whose classic jazz and swing arrangements were thrilling and hugely engaging. Jovan Rnjak’s performances of accordion classics and popular songs were very entertaining. Denise Leigh & Stefan Andrusyschyn put on their unique show, with solo baroque classical pieces performed very impressively by Stefan followed by Denise’s soaring soprano voice on operatic numbers with accordion accompaniment that were greatly appreciated.

Nigel Pasby & Helen Newton’s sophisticated duet arrangements were classy, and in contrast the spirited English folk dance music of Amaryllis (Tracey Middleton & David Garwood) was played with lift and neat finger work. Dawn Loombe and Bert Santilly contributed their solo and duet spots, each exhibiting a high standard of technique in their varied programmes.

A notable feature of this festival was the humour from all of the artists, enhancing each and every performance.

The workshops were ably led by Heather Smith (Vintage), Jovan Rnjak (Buskers), Bert Santiily (Jazz), Scottish (Amaryllis), and Dawn Loombe (Mixed Ability), each displaying their short programmes to good effect in a concert on the Sunday afternoon.

The festival included Caroline Hunt’s fascinating antique accordion exhibition, which included a range of accordions dating back to the 1830s plus memorabilia from times past.

The trade show included the Harry Kipling’s accordions Robaccord Publications, and Pat & Gordon’s Musical Miscellany.

This festival was the final one organised by Heather Smith.
