 Scottish born accordionist, James Crabb performed at the 2019 International Chamber Music Festival held at the Nelson Centre of Musical Arts in Nelson, South Island of New Zealand from January 31st to February 9th. The concert was entitled “Swedish Fantasy” and his program included Swedish composer Torbjörn Lundquist's saucy and jazzy 'Bewegungen' for accordion and string quartet and Schubert's A Major Duo for violin and piano with its soaring opening melody and lively teasing Scherzo. James Crabb was professor of classical accordion at the Royal Danish Academy of Music, Copenhagen, from 1995-2010 and held a long-standing guest professorship at the University of Music and Dramatic Arts in Graz, Austria. He is currently artistic director of the Four Winds music organisation and festival in Australia. Crabb has performed as soloist with many orchestras including BBC Symphony, BBC Scottish, Sydney and Melbourne Symphonies, London Philharmonic and London Symphony. |
