 The “Aotango” Duo received two standing ovations during their recent sold-out concert at the Waiheke Musical Museum in Auckland, New Zealand this month.“What do you get when you put together a master violinist, Andrew Beer, and a multiple world champion accordionist, Grayson Masefield? A breathtaking whirlwind experience of wonderful music and virtuosity.” A special treat was provided by Grayson who played one of his pieces on Lloyd Whitaker’s Titano Cosmopolitan accordion (picture right). Museum creator, Lloyd Whittaker (1932 – 2021) established Whittakers Musical Museum 25 years ago. “There is a longstanding family connection between Grayson’s family and the museum. Grayson’s grandfather sold this accordion to Lloyd, Grayson’s mother and her accordion group played at the museum at a fundraiser in 1996, and recently Grayson himself helped with the curation of our accordion and concertina collection.” |
