Die 3. Generalabstimmung für das Führungsteam der chinesischen Akkordeon Vereinigung (CAA) wurde unter der Schirmherrschaft des Chinesischen Musikervereins während der Hauptversammlung am 17. April 2011 in Peking durchgeführt, an der mehr als 40 Direktoren aus dem ganzen Land teilnahmen.

Basierend auf Diskussionen der letzten Jahre sowie Vorschlägen von Experten wurde Professor Li Cong, Dekan der Hochschule für Musik, Shanghai Normal University, einstimmig zum 4. Präsidenten der Chinesischen Akkordeon Assoziation (CAA) gewählt.

Weitere 8 Akkordeon Pädagogen und Künstler: Shusheng Wang, Luping Bai, Zhang Guoping, Ning Du, Yi Yang, Cao Xiao-Qing Chen Jun, und Guoli Yang, wurden als Vizepräsidenten des CAA gewählt. Stellvertretender Leiter der Art Troupe der Luftwaffe Tianyu Zhang wurde Generalsekretär der CAA benannt. Langzeit CAA Vizepräsident Li Wei Ming ist nun ein CAA Senior Berater und der ehemalige Präsident Ziqiang Zhang wurde als CAA Ehrenpräsident aufgestellt.

Die ersten drei Präsidenten der chinesischen Akkordeon Assoziation waren Yuping Wang (1990-1995), Shouzhi Wu (1996-2002) und Ziqiang Zhang (2002-2011). Der scheidende Präsident der CAA, Ziqiang Zhang ist sehr für seine progressive Führung während seiner CAA Präsidentschaft bekannt, als diese die internationale Akkordeon Weltbühne betrat. Zunächst als Mitglied der CIA, dann durch ihre immer mehr werdende international Tätigkeit mit vielen internationalen Wettbewerben und kulturellen Erfolgen. Nicht zu das Sponsoring von internationalen Top-Lehrer nach China, um neue Pädagogen in vielen Teilen Chinas zu fördern und auszubilden.

Solche große internationale Veranstaltungen wie Shanghai 2006, Shanghai 2008, Shanghai 2009 und Harbin 2010 (haben ich durch die Führung von Ziqiang Zhang, Professor Li Cong und die CAA Executive äußerst positiv weiter entwickelt) und waren einTeil der riesigen Entwicklungsfortschritte passiert der letzten Jahre in China.

Das neu gewählte CAA Team hielt ihre erste Präsidiums Konferenz am selben Nachmittag und befasste sich vor allem mit den Kernfragen der CAA und deren Zukunftspläne sowie dem bevorstehenden 64. CIA Coupe Mondiale der im Oktober diesen Jahres in Shanghai stattfinden wird.

In early 2011 Yuri Shishkin's new CD ‘Libretto’ was released, featuring music by Prokofiev, Stravinsky, Tchaikovsky, Mussorgsky, and Rimsky-Korsakov. Yuri is now preparing to record another CD, this time of American music by Gershwin and Copland, and also some jazz.

This spring Yuri Shishkin has performed successful concerts and given master-classes in Germany (Hamburg, Cottbus) and Poland (Warsaw, Stalowa Wola). In Poland he performed solo and in trio together with the "Harmonium Duo".

Yuri Shishkin CD's available online.

Yuri was a guest at the international festival ‘Accordion Plus’ in Rostov-on-Don, March 29th to 31st.

In May, Yuri Shishkin will give master classes in the Conservatory of Shanghai and will play recitals in some cities of China.

In June he will perform in the Ukraine, and from July 2nd to 10th, he has been invited to a summer school in Mientne, Poland. In August Yuri Shishkin will perform at the Berlioz Festival in La Cote Saint-Andre, France.

Yuri Shishkin speaks: "It is most difficult to play one program whilst preparing a new one. It is like trying to be on both a ship and the submarine at the same time! Sometimes I just don't have the concentration for a concert. I should be practising 4-8 hours in a day. A minimum”.

Russian accordionist Yuri Shishkin (born 1963), is the winner of international contests held in Klingenthal (Germany, 1988), Kansas City (USA, 1990), Castelfidardo (Italy, 1991), and a graduate of the Rostov-on-Don Conservatory, Russia, followed by postgraduate studies with Professor Viatcheslav Semionov at the Gnessins' Russian Academy of Music in Moscow.

‘14 Years Ago’ – New Zealand Embassy in China Welcomes Accordionists

The Accordions Worldwide news for the week ending May 2nd 1997 carried a delightful story about a group of young Chinese accordionists, visiting the New Zealand Embassy in Beijing, being invited to perform for staff whilst collecting their travel visas. It’s good to note accordion playing being welcomed in this way.

The teacher Mr Li is none other than Prof. Li Cong who has just been elected President of the Chinese Accordion Association (CAA) and is the subject of the first article of this news.

CHILDREN PERFORM FOR EMBASSY IN CHINA
Contributed by Shien Joe

Mr. Li and five of his students plan to participate in the 1997 South Pacific Accordion Championship held in Auckland. Just prior to issuing visas to the group, the New Zealand Embassy in Beijing made a request to "have the children perform to the Embassy staff".

So, Mr. Li packed the children and their accordions aboard a flight to Beijing. When the children had finished their performances, they received warm applause and congratulations from the Embassy staff. They wished the children a wonderful trip to New Zealand and their entry visas were issued on the spot. Hooray to the power of music.

Nicole Renaud’s ‘Couleurs’ Multimedia Concert, New York - USA

Nicole RenaudNicole Renaud’s ‘Couleurs’ original song cycle stands at the crossroads of French chanson, opera and performance art. It is a love story seen through colors, where each song represents a color.

The French accordion magazine ‘Accordéon-Accordéonistes’ review states, “In this album, Nicole Renaud’s sound is white as snow, pure, transparent, lyrical.”

Ms. Renaud’s multimedia concert takes place on May 8th, 8pm, at Galapagos Art Space, 16 Main St, Brooklyn, New York. Her performance involves live projection of the translated lyrics on her dress throughout the performance, thus creating visual poetry in the same vein of Apollinaire’s Calligrammes.

The soprano accompanies herself on a new one-of-a-kind, luminous transparent accordion, the ‘lincordian’, designed by British artist-engineer Paul Etienne Lincoln.
The scenic design and costume are by Parisian art director Jacques Perdigues, who has worked in the field of theater (Victoria Chaplin, Aurélia Thiérrée) and fashion (John Galliano, Thierry Mugler).
