World Concertina Day 2024! - Worldwideby Diatonic News |
  The third annual World Concertina Day, sponsored once again by the International Concertina Association, will be on February 6, 2024, the anniversary of the birth of Sir Charles Wheatstone. We encourage local groups and individual players around the world to put on your own concertina-related events, as happened on the previous World Concertina Days in 2022 and 2023. The ICA itself will be putting together another of our annual international video concerts, and we may organize a participatory online event too – watch this space for updates. WCD 2024 merchandise is now available!Plan a WCD event of your own! The ICA encourages everyone with an interest in the concertina to participate by organizing or taking part in an event in your local area or online on February 6, 2024, on the weekend before that, or on another nearby date. Some ideas: Gatherings of concertina players In-person or online public concert performances by concertina groups or individual performers. Online events could also be pre-recorded and posted online on the day. Events such as “concertina flash mobs” that lend themselves to social media publicity and local media interest Live workshop events featuring concertinas Local or national radio/TV interviews by concertina people Display or demonstration of the concertina at your local museum, library or community center Sharing a recording of yourself or telling your social media friends about your interest in the concertina ….or anything else you can think of! Take a look at what happened on World Concertina Day in 2022 and 2023. For all other information: https://concertina.org/world-concertina-day-2024/ |

Video di Ritals di Gianmaria Testa con Alessandro D’Alessandro - Italiaby Diatonic News |
 Online il video di Ritals di Gianmaria Testa nella rivisitazione per organetto realizzata da Alessandro D’Alessandro con la partecipazione straordinaria di Sonia Bergamasco e Neri Marcoré.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0DFNU63zdCM Una versione “recitata e teatralizzata” che accentua il pathos poetico e malinconico del brano, mentre le ombre disegnate da Silvio Gioia nel video realizzato da Roberto Mazzarelli ne pone in risalto la grande attualità intrecciando viaggi e storie di italiani a analoghe traversie di altri emigranti, allo stesso modo, sia pure in tempi diversi, obbligati a cercare una possibilità di futuro lontani dalla propria terra. Ritals è un termine dell’argot francese con il quale si indicavano, con una connotazione negativa, gli italiani immigrati in Francia e Belgio a partire dagli Anni Trenta. Gianmaria Testa, originario di Cuneo e quindi molto vicino al confine francese, ha così voluto intitolare una delle sue canzoni più struggenti per ricordare a una nazione attraversata periodicamente da impulsi razzistici e xenofobi quale era stato il destino degli italiani, anche loro un tempo alle prese con “l’odore delle stive/ l’amaro del partire” e “una lingua da disimparare/ e un’altra da imparare in fretta”. La canzone è stata poi ripresa da Alessandro D’Alessandro nel suo disco d’esordio come solista, Canzoni per organetto & elettronica, concepito come una sorta di omaggio alla grande canzone d’autore nazionale e internazionale, con un’accorta selezione di brani che si configurano come autentici tributi ad autori ai quali si è legati da affinità elettive: Musicista unanimemente apprezzato per quanto riesce ad esprimere con il suo “organetto preparato”, per il suo esordio da solista D’Alessandro ha deciso così di misurarsi, in solo¸ con classici della canzone nazionale e internazionale, volgendo il soffio del suo mantice verso una pluralità di mondi artistici, con esiti di grande fascinazione accentuata dalle voci di altri interpreti come Elio, Sergio Cammariere, David Riondino e Joan Manuel Serrat. “un omaggio anche alle canzoni della mia infanzia” ha dichiarato il musicista laziale “a quelle magie impastate di parole e suoni che ascoltavo alla radio e che sognavo per l’appunto di rifare con l’organetto, che già suonavo da piccolo”.

FORRO' LECCE/Manifatture Knos - Italiaby Diatonic News |
 |
| 4 Febbraio alle Manifatture Knos in via vecchia Frigole a Lecce. Start ore 18.30, ingresso con contributo di 5 Euro. Nasce a Lecce la prima festa di forrò pugliese. Un appuntamento al mese dedicato alla danza e alla musica tradizionale brasiliana. Una festa per cimentarsi con il forrò, danza tipica nata nel nord est del Brasile e ormai diffusa in tutto il mondo. Il forró nasce nei primi del '900 insieme al samba, mescolando le melodie europee e le ritmiche africane. Uno stile da danzare in coppia, sensuale e ritmato. A condurre le danze maestri italiani e brasiliani che in una classe aperta insegneranno a tutti le basi del forrò (che richiama l’inglese for all appunto). Ospite speciale di questo primo appuntamento sarà Valter Guerra, musicista e danzatore di San Paolo, esperto conoscitore delle tradizioni brasiliane. Un momento di danza sociale in un contesto che ricrea il calore e il fascino delle feste brasiliane, con la possibilità di degustare i piatti tipici e l’immancabile caipirinha, il cocktail brasiliano per eccellenza. In chiusura una jam con la partecipazione libera di musicisti italiani e brasiliani ad accompagnare tutti i danzatori in un momento di festa condivisa. Già confermata la partecipazione di: Clara Blavet (flauto), Simone Carrino (tamburello), Matteo Resta (basso), Claudio Prima (organetto e voce), Mestre Canhao (percussioni), Alessandro Lorusso (chitarra), Valentina Cantora (voce) e Marco Mariano (percussioni). L’evento è organizzato dall’Associazione Culturale Manigold in collaborazione con le Manifatture Knos. Info: info@manigold.it |

Workshop with Mel Biggs @ The Folk of Gloucester - UKby Diatonic News |
 |
 TUTOR: Session Survival Skills Workshop, The Folk of Gloucester10:00-15:00 The Folk of Gloucester, Gloucester. Workshop: 10-3pm (with breaks), steady speed session 4-5:30pm, concert 7:30-10:30pm A rare chance for folk music players of all levels to learn how to play better together in sessions. "When new to playing in groups, it can be really daunting even getting the instrument out of the bag let alone starting or joining in with a tune! I’m going to run a ‘deconstructed session’ with a small selection of tunes, which I believe give a fairly good overall representation of the types of tunes we come across in most ‘English’ sessions. It will give us a chance to stop and chat about the gripes we face in sessions and have a safe space to try out some new approaches that you can take away and try out in your local ‘wild’ session." This workshop is for anyone interested in English folk music, folk dance or trying out playing in groups for the first time. Beginner/improver friendly but all experience levels welcome (not suitable for absolute beginners). Participants do not need to read music notation, and no previous folk music experience is required, but a basic knowledge of music (scales, chords, time signatures) will help. This workshop is for all folk melody instruments and melodeons tuned in D/G with a minimum of 2-rows and 8-basses. MORE INFO & BOOKINGS https://thefolkofgloucester.co.uk/ |

Stage du Technique, expression, composition avec Riccardo Tesi - Franceby Diatonic News |
 |
| Samedi 13 mai de de 11h à 13h30 et de 14h30 à 17h à Montreuil, métro Croix de Chavaux (L’adresse complète sera communiquée au moment de l’inscription. Une assiette de pâtes sera offerte pour le déjeuner) RÉSERVATION OBLIGATOIRE en écrivant à caravaneritale@gmail.com ou au 06 66 75 98 46 Le stage, de la durée de 5h, sera basé sur les différents aspects qui caractérisent la pratique de l’accordéon diatonique aujourd’hui tant sur le plan technique (utilisation du soufflet, technique linéaire et croisée, doigté, coordination) que sur le plan de l’interprétation (ornements, expression, staccato et legato etc.). Une partie du stage sera dédiée aux possibilités harmoniques de l’instrument et à son utilisation pour la composition. La pratique se basera tant sur des morceaux traditionnels que sur des compositions de Riccardo Tesi. Pour la participation au stage une connaissance de base de l’instrument et de sa technique est demandée. Par contre la connaissance de la théorie musicale n’est pas obligatoire. Modèle d’accordéon conseillé : Accordéon Diatonique SOL/DO 8 basses ou supérieur. L’utilisation d’appareils d’enregistrement est vivement conseillée pour pouvoir continuer le travail après le stage. Riccardo Tesi - Biographie Compositeur, instrumentiste, chanteur et chercheur dans le domaine des musiques traditionnelles, Riccardo Tesi est un des pionniers de l’utilisation de l’accordéon diatonique en tant qu’instrument de composition et d’expérimentation. Après ses débuts dans la musique traditionnelle de sa région (la Toscane), il s’est ouvert aux musiques traditionnelles italiennes, européennes, au jazz et à la composition. Ses nombreux disques, incontournables dans la discothèque du musicien et passionné de cet instrument, mettent l’accordéon diatonique en valeur, en montrant la richesse, la complexité et l’expressivité de cet instrument « ancien », qu’il utilise d’une façon innovante, virtuose et créative.

Feb. 2024, 19:00 MEZ Fornach, Österreich Jakob Steinkellner rückt mit seinem aktuellen Programm „Denkwechsel“ die Steirische Harmonika in ein ungewohnt konzertantes Licht. In seinen Kompositionen verbindet der Musiker traditionelle Klangmuster alpenländisch-volkstümlicher Instrumentalmusik mit neumodernen Einflüssen. Diese Aspekte reizt er mit stilvoller Leichtigkeit als auch extravagantem Spielwitz aus und zeigt, - im wahrsten Sinne des Wortes - wie "viel-faltig" die Ziach klingen kann. Mit minimalistischen, poppig-modernen und liedhaften Stücken, vom klassischen Choral bis hin zum Tango, oder denkwechselnden Nummern in vertrackten Siebenachteltakten drängt Steinkellner instrumental als auch musikalisch zum "Denkwechsel" - weg vom Wirtshaus und ab auf die Bühne! Bei Steinkellners Konzerten erwartet Sie ist eine grenzgängerische Rampenschweinerei mit wortgewandtem sowie musikalischem Witz, künstlerischer Raffinesse, stilistischer Vielfalt und vor allem: Viel Musik für's Ohr und für's Herz. https://www.jakobsteinkellner.com/diatonische-harmonika |

| UPCOMING SHOWS 17.2.2024 Talviharmonikka Kokkola, Finland 5.4.2024 Espace Avel Vor Plougastel, France 17.5.2024 Baie de Morlaix Morlaix, France BIOGRAPHY Musician and composer Antti Paalanen (b. 1977) has been prominent in the field of Finnish contemporary folk music for many years. Antti Paalanen makes his music on the bisonoric (diatonic) accordion, a common instrument in Finnish folk music for the past century. Paalanen has employed an organic performance style, new techniques and new expressive sonorities to expand the potential of the instrument to embrace a variety of genres. Paalanen comes from South Ostrobothnia, a region rich in the pelimanni (’traditional musician’) tradition of Finnish folk music. Between 1989 and 1996, Paalanen won the Finnish pelimanni championships on the diatonic accordion four times, and he placed second in the diatonic accordion world championships in Austria in 1999. He enrolled at the Department of Folk Music at the Sibelius Academy in 1997 and completed his M.Mus. degree in 2006. In 2015 he completed a D.Mus. degree at the Sibelius Academy of the University of the Arts Helsinki. https://www.anttipaalanen.com/ |

DANÇAS OCULTAS - 1 spring-concert - Portugal/Belgiumby Diatonic News |
 |
| 14/03/24 Cultuurcentrum Mechelen Mechelen Belgium Artur Fernandes – Diatonisches Akkordeon Francisco Miguel – Diatonisches Akkordeon Filipe Cal – Diatonisches Akkordeon Filipe Ricardo – Diatonisches Akkordeon Behind the name Danças Ocultas are four accordionists from Agueda, near Porto, who are among the most innovative and exciting representatives of contemporary sounds from Portugal. For some years now, they have been conquering international stages with a concept that is unspectacular at first listen: calm, lyrical, more or less traditional, with just four diatonic accordions. The quartet's name has nothing to do with esoteric worlds, but indicates that the four play music for dances that have yet to be invented. The famous fado plays a subordinate role; instead, they take traditional village music, tango nuevo and chamber music, such as that of the Russian Terem Quartet, as the basis for their explorations. They neither hold accordionist speed competitions nor do they play pure folk music. Their timeless art music can best be described as impressionistic folk: minimalist, profound sound paintings full of unexpected twists and turns and sublime melancholy. Very special music that you can't help but fall into. for Bookings: Sabine Schrebak www.culturworks.at sabina@cultureworks.at |
