 The final Mundesley accordion festival, which was exhilarating and exhausting in equal measures, took place last week at Richardson’s Holiday Village. There was an abundance of top class playing in concerts from the Paris-Moscow Duo (Domi Emorine and Roman Jbanov), accordion/clarinet duo David Vernon & Dick Lee, virtuoso Pearl Fawcett-Adriano, jazz entertainer Harry Hussey, virtuoso Rosemary Wright, and jazz and swing accordionist Bert Santilly. The festival participants spent much time in the orchestral workshops during each day, culminating in a concert performance in the afternoon of the last day. Congratulations to Heather Smith for organising this and previous festivals at Mundesley, Seacroft (Hemsby), Caister and Pakefield. Her festivals in Blackpool will continue, the next being set for May 10th/15th 2015. The original festival organiser, the late and still missed Malcolm Gee – whose first festival in Norfolk took place in November 1986 at nearby Caister, which starred Toralf Tollefsen and Lars Ek, once described accordion festivals as “a total indulgence in accordions”, and this remains today as true as ever. |
