The Ins and the Outs of the Accordion

Akkordeonale - Deutschland

by Diatonic News
Throughout the years, the accordion has proved to be a darling of the public. It enchants thousands of people every year at the Akkordeonale, worldwide the only touring accordion festival.

There’s hardly a cultural sphere this incomparable wonder-box hasn’t conquered. Hardly a musical style where it doesn’t feel at home.

For the sixth time now, Holland’s Servais Haanen invites musicians from all around the world to celebrate the accordion’s cultural diversity.

Once again, the Akkordeonale dives into the acoustic worlds of that most cosmopolitan of instruments, leaving far behind tedious clichés and cosy musical stereotypes. In this festival, the accordion gets its chance to display its full musical richness. From traditional to contemporary, from folkloristic to exotic, jazzy, virtuosic and fervid – an exuberance of stylistic shapes and tonal possibilities.

This year’s musical journey leads from Brazil over Belgium and Serbia to Iran – as always with a stopover in the Netherlands.

A rodeo party’s gaucho music meets breathtaking Serbian accordion virtuosity, Musette-gems and Dutch sound aesthetics encounter jazz from the land of the Sheherazade, embroidered by Portuguese fado guitar and cello.

Political differences seem unimportant, frontiers are swept aside and the fresh winds from the bellows of five accordions blend cultures. Vibrantly changing between solos and ensemble pieces, the musicians communicate in their common language of music.

When Servais Haanen pulls the musical strings and interweaves the manifold tonal possibilities into a whole, the talent for improvisation and spontaneity of all musicians lead the ensemble to form a unity as if by itself.

Like a snap-shot in time, the festival is a unique experience, intense and thrilling, a celebration of sounds…

Masterclass con Riccardo Tesi - Italia

by Diatonic News
Due giorni all'insegna della musica d'autore attraverso le note della fisarmonica diatonica di Riccardo Tesi, compositore, strumentista e ricercatore dalla complessa e poliedrica personalità artistica e dalle prestigiose collaborazioni quali De Andrè, Gaber, Fossati e Vanoni. La manifestazione organizzata dall’Accademia Musicale “Nuove Armonie” di Paola (CS) sotto la direzione del M.° Alberto La Neve è iniziata Sabato 22 marzo con un concerto in solo di Riccardo Tesi tenutosi presso la sala concerti del circolo Arci "Piera Bruno".

Ad aprire il concerto due giovanissimi allievi dell'Accademia Musicale “Nuove Armonie”. Alessandro e Gabriele Guglielmi, piccole promesse della fisarmonica diatonica, che hanno presentato un repertorio di brani composti dall'artista ospite, preparati ed arrangiati dal Maestro Antonio Spaccarotella, docente di Fisarmonica Classica e moderna e fisarmonica diatonica dell'Accademia.

Il percorso musicale attraverso la riscoperta della fisarmonica diatonica è proseguito domenica 23 marzo, giornata nella quale Riccardo Tesi ha tenuto la Masterclass "L'organetto diatonico fra tradizione e innovazione" presso la sede dell’Accademia Musicale.

Una masterclass internazionale che ha visto un numerosa partecipazione di studenti da diverse regioni d'Italia ma anche dall'estero come la studentessa brasiliana Dayane Radvansky giovane allieva del M°Spaccarotella arrivata da poco e che ha avuto modo di condividere una esperienza formativa di altissimo livello.

Il Maestro Tesi ha condiviso con i presenti gli aspetti tecnici e peculiari dei suoi brani più noti, quali “Tevack” e “Fulmine” , esponendo la molteplicità di stili, dall'etnico al jazz che ne caratterizzano i lavori e trasmettendo con naturalezza e discrezione valori e competenze che hanno affascinato il pubblico in sala.

3e Dag van het Balginstrument - Holland

by Diatonic News
13 April 2014

In de harmonicawereld is een traditie ontstaan waar spelers alleen of in groepjes hun muziek voor een publiek kunnen uitvoeren. Hiertoe kent men het zogenaamde “open podium” . Hier kan men in een informele sfeer voor elkaar spelen en fijn met het instrument en met de muziek bezig zijn. De Dag van het Balginstrument van Stichting Novam-Gelderland/Utrecht, wordt nu alweer voor de 3e keer in samenwerking met THA-Ugchelen georganiseerd en de organisatie ziet behalve harmonica”s ook graag accordeonisten optreden. Het is voor de deelnemers ook erg leuk eens kennis te maken met de neef van het eigen instrument en zodiende eens over de “schutting”te kijken. Marco Sileon is aanwezig om met name de harmonica te demonstreren en je kunt ook zelf een zo”n instrument proberen. Hoewel alles in een uiterst informele sfeer verloopt, wordt aanmelding op prijs gesteld als je zelf ook wilt spelen als solist of met je eigen groep. Men kan met maximaal 15 á 20 spelers tegelijk optreden. Komt U alleen luisteren en kijken dan bent U van harte welkom. De toegang is gratis. De dag wordt gehouden in het vakantiepark Lierderholt gelegen in de bossen bij Beekbergen, waar je ook een schitterende wandeling kunt maken en voortreffelijk kan eten

CD “FELLINI GOES JAZZ" - Denmark

by Diatonic News
“FELLINI GOES JAZZ"
Paolo Russo Quintet
plays the music of Nino Rota

This is a tribute to Italian film music.
The great master of Italian cinema, Federico Fellini, showed us the big feelings like no other: Love, beauty and passion as well as treachery, malice and suffering. These feelings resonate throughout the film music as well, in the great work of the Italian composer Nino Rota, who also wrote the music for the Godfather movies.

This concert will take the listener on a journey through some of the most famous themes from Federico Fellini's masterpieces "Amarcord", "La dolce vita" and "8 e 1/2", as well as a selection of melodies from the "Godfather" movie’s unforgettable soundtrack and more...

Paolo Russo – piano, bandoneon & direction
Emanuele Cisi – tenor saxophone
Nico Gori – clarinet and bass clarinet
Francesco Calì – accordion and piano
Jesper Bodilsen – contrabass
