Covid-19 Claims Another Accordionist, Shelia Lee, Houston – USAby Christine Johnstone |
Accordions Worldwide regrets to report that Covid-19 has claimed the life of another accordionist. Bill Merlin Palmer has announced on social media that his duet partner, Shelia Lee (picture above) passed away this week from Covid-19. The duo had been performing together for the past 7 years and had worked together at Lechner's German Restaurant in Houston and at the Tomball German Festivals. Shelia was a big supporter of the Palmer-Hughes Accordion Course, which was written by Bill’s father (Dr Willard Palmer) along with Bill Hughes. She had approximately 200 students at her studio in Pasadena and was an avid promoter of the accordion. Shelia basically taught herself to play the Tex-Mex buttonbox, well enough that she convinced several of the luminaries of Conjunto music to come to her studio and give master classes to her students. In addition to her music school, Shelia had her own combo, opened Houston Accordion Performers, authored many instructional DVD’s and books for the diatonic accordion as well as a complete free video series teaching the Palmer & Hughes Lesson Books and much more. AccordionUSA Editor Rita Barnea wrote: "Shelia Lee loved teaching and sharing the fun she had playing the accordion and was a very popular teacher at the annual NAA Conventions each year where she conducted the Dance Orchestra. Shelia who dedicated her life to the accordion was a very friendly, kind, encouraging and inspirational person who could brighten up anyone’s day. She will be missed by all." |

Video: 90 Year Old Accordionist Plays "La Cumparsita" - Brazilby Christine Johnstone |
Video: Norma, who is 90 years old from Florianapolis, Brazil still enjoys playing her accordion. In this video she performs "La Cumparsita" by Matos Rodríguez with her daughter Marcia. "Music-making is linked to a number of health benefits for older adults," said Suzanne Hanser, chair of the music therapy department at the Berklee College of Music in Boston. "Research shows that making music can lower blood pressure, decrease heart rate, reduce stress, and lessen anxiety and depression. There is also increasing evidence that making music enhances the immunological response, which enables us to fight viruses," Hanser said. Hanser said that anyone, regardless of age or ability, can make music and benefit from it. Researchers at the Western Sydney University's MARCS Institute for Brain, Behaviour and Development say even a small amount of musical training can have long-lasting effects, particularly for seniors. They say playing a musical instrument in retirement is one of the best ways to stay mentally and physically agile. Music and psychology researcher with the institute, Dr Jennifer MacRitchie, has been studying the benefits of learning an instrument for the first time in people aged over 65 and found very positive outcomes. Enjoy playing the accordion! |
