Mirek Salmon Performs on BBC Radio 4, Bristol - UKby Rob Howard |
 |
| Mirek Salmon, an accordionist from Bristol, appeared on BBC Radio 4's ‘Broadcasting House’ on Sunday, presented by Paddy O'Connell, and performed onstage in front of a live audience at St George’s Concert Hall in Bristol. The show was broadcast live to over 2 million listeners! Mirek had to play excerpts from ‘Wallace & Gromit’, Chopin's ‘Minute Waltz’, and the ‘Imperial March’ from ‘Star Wars’ to correspond to the various guests appearing on the show. Mirek played throughout the show and finished it off with a rendition of The Archers theme tune to usher in the Sunday omnibus, something his mother, listening at home, particularly enjoyed! You can still catch the episode on the BBC iplayer until March 25th at this link http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b01dh7c6/Broadcasting_House_18_03_2012/ Mirek, a student of Karen Street, is a very versatile and busy jazz accordionist. He performs with ‘Moscow Drug Club’ and also with a new project ‘Bluesette’. They will be performing at London's Le Quecumbar, the UK home of gypsy jazz on Monday May 14th. |
