 From 10th to 16th of March, Gorka Hermosa was invited to the Central Conservatory of Music, Beijing. Invited the same week was German accordionist Helmut Jacobs and both were giving masterclasses to the students of Prof. Cao Xiao-Qing, the Central Conservatory accordion tutor.These superb students have enjoyed many successes at international competitions and some played compositions of Gorka Hermosa in their masterclasses. Gorka Hermosa also made a class for the students of composition who this year, must all compose one work for accordion. Gorka explained the great possibilities of our instrument, and played examples of different composers so they might appreciate all the many possibilities of the accordion. The 12th March, Gorka played a concert in the Concert Hall of the Conservatory playing his own compositions, including two World Premieres: Oda (dedicated to Christine Rossi) and Saudade Ártica (dedicated to Paulo Jorge Ferreira). The same day, Dr. Pr. Helmut C. Jacobs also gave a concert playing some Spanish baroque fandangos and original works by Regondi, Roeseling, Brehme and Hermosa`s “Ekigrama”. The 13th March was a very interesting meeting between Gorka Hermosa, Helmut Jacobs and the Professor of Cheng, the first free reed instrument. Of great interest was the different ways of playing the Cheng and the performance of various Cheng students. On the 15th March, Gorka and Helmut each gave a seminar about the history of the accordion to the students of accordion which included a lot of new information from recent historical research. Thanks to Cao Xiao-Qing. For further information email: gorkahermosa@yahoo.es |
