El organizador anfitrión Deutscher Harmonika-Verband e. V., (DHV), el delegado Georg Hettmann (foto a la derecha), informará sobre sus planes al Congreso. Las reglas de la Coupe Mondiale 2021, los detalles de viaje y alojamiento se publicarán antes de Navidad.

También se discutirán en el Congreso los planes para otro innovador Día Mundial del Acordeón (6 de mayo) con varios eventos en todo el mundo, además de un importante programa internacional en línea planeado por miembros de la CIA en varios países.

Un informe completo del Congreso y los planes futuros para 2021 se publicarán aquí el próximo viernes.

AAA cancela el Festival 2021, Conshohocken - EE. UU.

AAA header
Joseph CicconeEs con gran decepción que, debido a la situación actual relacionada con la pandemia mundial (Covid 19), la Junta Ejecutiva y la Junta Directiva de AAA hayan tomado la decisión necesaria de cancelar el Festival AAA del 14 al 18 de julio de 2021 en el oeste de Filadelfia.

Estamos comprometidos con la seguridad pública, incluida la de nuestros muchos asistentes, invitados y artistas leales, y para ayudar a apoyar los fuertes esfuerzos de nuestra nación para ayudar a controlar la propagación de COVID-19, nos unimos a una larga lista de eventos que ya han sido cancelados. Aunque la pandemia ha cambiado nuestras vidas de muchas maneras, siempre encontramos un lado positivo.

Busque las nuevas empresas digitales de AAA a través de conferencias en línea, seminarios, concursos de conciertos y la ceremonia / concierto del premio AAA Lifetime Achievement Award en honor a Linda Solely Reed. Nos facilitará la comunicación sin perder el ritmo.

¡Hay un mundo maravilloso en Zoom esperándote! Esperamos ver a todos nuestros compañeros acordeonistas en línea. ¡Esté seguro, manténgase sano y mantenga la fe!
Felices fiestas a todos.

Un cordial saludo,
Joseph Ciccone, presidente de la AAA
