 The Accordions Worldwide news for the week ending February 2nd 2001 included an item describing the lengths accordionist Campbell Bettridge (New Zealand Accordion Champion 1993, 94 and 2001 and 3rd place 2002 Coupe Mondiale Piano Accordion category) went to in order to do some entertaining in Fiji. The life of an gigging accordionist is not all chauffeur driven limousines, de luxe hotels, and champagne receptions. Bravo, Campbell! ACCORDIONIST ENTERTAINS VILLAGERS - FIJI New Zealand accordionist Campbell Bettridge entertained over 200 villagers on the island of Kadavu in Fiji recently. To get to the venue Campbell had to transport his accordion via a small boat, then carry it up a winding track by torch light! The villagers enjoyed Campbell's program which included ‘Flight of the Bumblebee’ and a Rock 'n Roll medley. |
