The young accordionist recently participated (with flattering successes) in different competitions and concerts, such as "Young People Yesterday" in Ancona, where - along with accordionist Luigino Pallotta (another promising student of Maestro Mugnoz) -- performed with considerable maturity and skill, a program "between the serious and popular music"

 A new listing on the Stolen Accordion site concerns the accordion stolen recently from Charles R Smith. Accordionists are reminded to report all stolen accordions to this site to hopefully discourage future thefts and make the accordions harder to sell.
You are welcome to send in details of thefts in the last 3 years if the accordion has not been recovered. Submit on the Stolen Accordion site.
Niek van Uden (pictured) who also had an accordion lost recently has written an article "Recovering a Lost Accordion" about the experience. |
