«Всероссийский день баяна 2013», Москваby Dr Herbert Scheibenreif Manager of Friedrich Lips Productions |
Баян, аккордеон и губная гармоника всегда были популярны в России. И на фронтах Великой Отечественной войны, и на торжествах, таких как свадьбы, они были незаменимыми спутниками повседневной русской жизни. В 1948 году развитие народных инструментов получило новый импульс, когда в Москве в ГМПИ имени Гнесиных (ныне РАМ им. Гнесиных) был открыт одноименный факультет. Исполнители на народных инструментах получили, наконец, возможность обучаться наравне с пианистами и скрипачами. Во всех регионах большой страны, в консерваториях и вузах открылись факультеты нового академического инструмента, и с того времени русские баянисты и аккордеонисты начали добиваться огромных успехов на самых престижных международных соревнованиях. Сегодня многие крупные композиторы России пишут музыку для нашего инструмента: С. Губайдулина, А. Холминов, Р. Леденев, Е. Подгайц, М. Броннер, А. Журбин и др. Баянисты и аккордеонисты выступают в крупнейших концертных залах мира. Несмотря на, в целом, сложную экономическую ситуацию в стране и, как следствие, проблемы в культурной жизни, кафедра баяна и аккордеона РАМ им. Гнесиных пригласила всех коллег своей огромной страны праздновать вместе Всероссийский день баяна, аккордеона и гармоники. В этом году праздник состоялся в третий раз. Концерт в РАМ им. Гнесиных состоялся в субботу 16 марта, став, таким образом, частью «Всемирного дня аккордеона», который по инициативе Международной конфедерации аккордеонистов (CIA) проводится каждый год 6 мая. В программе московского концерта приняли участие: Фридрих Липс (фото выше), исполнивший «Семь еврейских песен" М. Броннера для баяна и камерного оркестра (Московская премьера) в сопровождении московского камерного оркестра «Времена года» (дирижер Владислав Булахов). Михаил Бурлаков (баян, фото слева) и Светлана Фурник (орган), которые исполнили сочинение K.Волкова «Складень» для баяна и органа. Мадина Цалоева (осетинская гармошка), Марат Сатцаев (доули), Елена Радченко – флейта и Олеся Гиоева (фортепиано), которые исполнили попурри на темы кавказских мелодий и фантазию Ф. Алборова на тему из к/ф: «Ах, любовь». Второе отделение концерта было посвящено 70-летию Виктора Гридина (1943-1997). В нем принял участие Государственный академический русский народный ансамбль "Россия" им. Л.Г.Зыкиной (художественный руководитель и главный дирижёр Дмитрий Дмитриенко) и солисты: народная артистка РФ Надежда Крыгина, заслуженный артист РФ Юрий Сидоров, лауреаты Всероссийских и международных конкурсов Михаил Чернов, Александр Селиванов, Александр Наюнкин. В программе прозвучали произведения и авторские аранжировки В.Гридина. |

Frédéric Guérouet Accordion Recital, Paris - Franceby Dr Herbert Scheibenreif Manager of Friedrich Lips Productions |
During his concert at Médiathèque Marguerite Duras, Paris on Saturday March 23rd, Frédéric Guérouet gave the first performance of Ida Gotkovsky’s ‘Rhapsody for Accordion’ in the presence of the composer. Also performed were some major works of the contemporary accordion repertoire by Alain Abbott, Sofia Gubaidulina, Magnus Lindberg, Alain Margoni and others. An exhibition of CD's and scores of Ida Gotkovsky and works for accordion in collaboration with les éditions Gérard Billaudot was organized in the hall. Frédéric Guérouet began his accordion studies at the age of six with his father and then with Médard Ferrero. At the age of 11, he performed in Salle Pleyel, the most prestigious concert hall of Paris. After the death of his teacher, he continued his studies with Joe Rossi. In September 1975, he was admitted to the Conservatory of Music of Kiev in the Ukraine in the class of Vladimir Besfamilnov. After winning numerous awards, he began a solo career, which led him throughout Europe and on to such places as Buenos Aires and Tokyo. Besides his solo career, he has accompanied many artists such as Barbara Hendricks, or young soloists such as Rachid Safir. He played in the Quartet of Accordions of Paris with Richard Galliano, Valérie Guérouet and Joe Rossi. Today, Guérouet moves more and more towards creation and composition, encouraged by Philippe Hersant, Thierry Escaich and Henri Dutilleux. |

Corrado Rojac Master Class, Pesaro - Italyby Harley Jones |
Video above: "Metric Expansion of Space" by Edgar-Barroso played by Corrado Rojac performed at Harvard University, USA. Program notes below. On March 26th and 28th this year accordionist Corrado Rojac, from Trieste, gave a masterclass at the Conservatory "G. Rossini" in Pesaro. Invited by Maestro Paolo Vignani, accordion teacher at the Institute of Pesaro, Corrado Rojac gave a lecture-concert about literature for accordion, with particular reference to the music of Giuseppe Greggiati, a Mantua musician to whom we owe much for our repertoire for accordion in Italy, and Donatoni, the famous Milanese composer who dedicated a song to the accordion, ‘Feria IV’, for which Corrado Rojac gave a short analysis. The meeting also organised some lessons by Corrado Rojac to talented students, dealing with music by Berio, Lundquist, Trojan and Rendine. For further information email: info@corradorojac.com Video program notes: "Metric Expansion of Space" by Edgar-Barroso The metric expansion of space is the increase of distance between distant objects in a space that is constantly expanding, like the universe. Even though the universe is expanding, is not expanding into anything outside of itself. I imagine this expansion as very violent and extreme. The piece expands certain material into itself, a sort of a force that is trying to reach the unreachable, but has no place to go but to return to his own mass. With an obsessive obstinate rhythmic structure and with spasms of energy that revolves in its own velocity, range and capacity, the accordion becomes a machine which receives a non-stop stream of energy from the player. These bursts of energy can be measured between several nearby points in space with a very precise compositional strategy. The piece uses amplification as a continuation of the idea of being continuing expanding. I can't think of a better performer than Corrado Rojac, he is energetic, precise and yet sensitive to convey the beauty raised from an obsessive behavior. We are very lucky to have him with us. |

‘Accordion 5’ Classical Revolution concert, London – UKby Rob Howard |
The quintet ‘Accordion 5’ perform in a Classical Revolution series of concerts on Tuesday April 2nd, 7.30pm, at The Green Carnation, 2-4 Greek Street, Soho, London W1D 4DD. The programme includes Piazzolla - ‘Libertango’, Vivaldi – ‘Summer’ from ‘4 Seasons’, and W. Kilar – ‘Orawa’. The performance is followed at 9pm by a ‘Chamber Jam’! Classical Revolution, which began in San Francisco in 2006, is a pioneer of the approachable classical music movement, and has since spread to over 25 cities worldwide. It offers a night that’s totally different from a standard classical music concert, taking classical music out of the symphonic halls and into local venues, where the audience can chat with the performers over a beer and enjoy informal ‘jam sessions’ with some of the world’s top singers and instrumental performers. The project is not for profit, and brings together music aficionados and newbies under one roof to celebrate excellent music and brilliant performances.
