‘Accordion Meets The Classics’ Concert, Weissach – Germanyby Rob Howard |
On November 11th the accordion orchestra Orchestervereinigung Flacht-Rutesheim, AkkO, and the local school orchestra performed together a concert of wide ranging classical music, themed ‘Accordion Meets The Classics’, at the Strudelbachhalle, Weissach, Baden-Württenburg. A special feature of the evening were contributions from Joachim Bänsch, solo horn player with the SWR Stuttgart Radio Symphony Orchestra. The overall conductor was Gunther Stoll, who gave interesting insights into the music and the accordion. Music performed included ‘Prelude and Fugue’ – JS Bach, ‘Die drei Musketiere’, ‘Homage March’ - Edvard Grieg, ‘Nabucco’ – G. Verdi, and ‘Concerto in E’ – WA Mozart. The concert hall was full, and the audience loved the instrumental and vocal combinations, and the performances of all concerned. The next concert, ‘Hits and Evergreens’, takes place on May 4th 2013 in the Strudelbachhalle, Weissach. For further information email: Guenther.Stoll@t-online.de |
