“Tracce di Ottocento” - Castelfidardo/Italiaby Laura Francinella |
 |
 Si è svolta a Castelfidardo il 10 e 11 agosto 2018 la IV edizione della Rievocazione Storica organizzata dall’Associazione “Tracce di Ottocento” e dall’Amministrazione Comunale. Castelfidardo ha spostato le lancette indietro nel tempo e ha ricreato il borgo del 1886, quando veniva inaugurato l’acquedotto cittadino, si cominciava ad utilizzare la corrente elettrica e alle attività tradizionali della campagna e della vita domestica si affiancava la costruzione degli organetti e degli “armonici”. Non poteva quindi mancare la bottega di Paolo Soprani, dove sono state riprodotte alcune fasi lavorative dello strumento grazie ad artigiani di Castelfidardo che portano avanti ancora oggi questa tradizione fidardense e si sono messi volontariamente a disposizione del progetto. Fanno parte del gruppo artigiani della fisarmonica, coordinato da Laura Francenella: Daniela e Tonino Alessandrini, Marinella Petromilli, Sabrina Alba e Gianfranco Marincioni, Rodolfo Spadari, Roberto Monaci, Giuliana Zanirato e Giancarlo Francenella. Si ringrazia inoltre la famiglia Carini che ha messo a disposizione strumenti storici originali di Paolo Soprani. A conclusione delle due serate è stato anche proiettato sulla facciata del Palazzo Comunale un emozionante e spettacolare video architetturale sulla storia di Castelfidardo, dalla Battaglia Risorgimentale del 1860 al successo di Paolo Soprani e degli altri artigiani fidardensi che con i loro strumenti hanno dato lustro al nostro paese, arrivando fino ad oggi con immagini di Gervasio Marcosignori e di altri musicisti famosi. Il video verrà riproiettato in occasione del 43° Premio Internazionale di Fisarmonica di Castelfidardo. |

Quote from a TripAdvisor contributor, "If you love accordion music (or even if you hate it), this place is an adventure. The Carrefour Mondial brings accordionists from all over the globe, and it seems as if every man, woman, and child in Montmagny plays some version of a squeezebox. We camped out, dined where we could (the locals provide their hearty version of baked beans), line danced, and heard the accordion stretched to its ultimate performance abilities. It was so much fun. Highly recommended.” This year’s guests include Alexandre Boivin Caron, Élisabeth Nicol and Virginie Nicol (Quebec), Steve Normandin (Quebec), Gary Blair and Robin Hyland (Scotland), Sylvie Pulles (France), Marie-Jeanne Brousseau et Guillaume Turcotte (Quebec), Alain Chatry (France), Trio Antonio Rivas, Daniel Ochoa and Jairo Gomez (Colombia), Gangspil: Sonnich Lydom et Kristian Bugge (Denmark), Filippo Gambetta and Emilyn Stam (Italy/Canada), Roman Jbanov and Alexeï Birioukov (Russia), Duo Le Bour Bodros: Youen Bodros et Timothée Le Bour (Brittany/France), Gaston Nolet (Quebec), Vladimir Sidorov (Russia), Andrea Di Giacomo (Italy), Pascal Lamige (France), Marie-Desneiges Hamel et Gaëtan Lefebvre (Quebec), Len Wallace (Ontario, Canada), Duo Daura: Pilar Planavila and Ivan Caro (Spain), Susie Lemay, Kimberley Holmes and Jocelyne Bourque (Canada), Sabin Jacques and Rachel Aucoin (Quebec), Joaquin Diaz (Dominican Republic), Gerry Virone (Quebec), Bernard Lafargue (Quebec), Club Carrefour (Quebec), Marcel Caron (Quebec), Serge Duchesne (Quebec), Valerie Plante (Quebec), and more.

Andreas Gabalier & Band 1.12.18 - Graz/Austriaby Diatonic News |
 |
 Stadthalle Graz, 01.12.2018, 20:00Die Erfolgsserie des Andreas Gabalier reißt nicht ab: ausverkaufte Arena-Tourneen, monatelange Charts-Platzierungen, Auszeichnungen wie Echo, Bambi, Amadeus und Auftritte in den größten Stadien – man kann sagen, dieser Mann hat es geschafft. Angekommen ganz oben in der Musikszene ist es ihm wie kaum einem anderen Künstler zuvor gelungen, sein ganz eigenes Genre und den unverwechselbaren Stil im Trachtenlook zu etablieren. Die Mischung aus Pop, Schlager, Rock'n'Roll und eingängigen Melodien kommt an und lädt zum Mitsingen und -feiern ein. Seine Fans sind zwischen 8 und 80 und dass Musik verbindet und als universelle Sprache gilt, erlebt man selten so, wie auf den Konzerten von Andreas Gabalier. Er ist der derzeit erfolgreichste Musikact der deutschsprachigen Szene und schaffte es in den letzten Monaten mühelos, die größten Stadien zu füllen. Nach 3 Jahren geht der steirische Superstar im Winter 2018 in gewohnter „Mountainman-Power" und in Begleitung seiner VolksRocknRoller-Band mit seinen Fans auf Live-Tuchfühlung. Wenn Andreas seine Harmonika und seine Stromgitarre im satten VolksRocknRoller Sound aufheulen lässt, wenn er dazu seine Lederhosenhüften schwingt – dann geraten die Fans vor der Bühne geradezu in Ekstase! Das will sich keiner entgehen lassen - am wenigsten Andreas Gabalier selbst! Tickets für die Gabalier-Hallentour 2018 sollte man sich rasch sichern. Denn Mister „Hulapalu" ist live einfach ein unvergleichliches Erlebnis! |

John Kirkpatrick British Chromatic Accordion Course, Shropshire – UKby Diatonic News |
 From Friday September 7th to Sunday September 9th John Kirkpatrick leads a workshop aimed specifically for players of the 3-row B/C/C sharp British Chromatic accordion. The venue is Church Barn, Church Lane, Bishop’s Castle, Shropshire SY9 5AF.The 3-row B/C/C sharp British Chromatic accordion is a hybrid instrument, combining a large treble melodeon button layout with a stradella bass keyboard. The system was developed in Italy in the early years of the 20th Century but did not become well-known until made famou¬s by Jimmy Shand in the late 1930s. Workshops for this system are rarely held, and John Kirkpatrick is England’s foremost exponent. John Kirkpatrick is a highly respected player of diatonic instruments such as the 3-row accordion, melodeons and the Anglo concertina, and is also a leading folk singer and composer. In a career dating back to 1970 he has recorded many solo albums and appeared on many more as a session musician. He has been a member of Steeleye Span, the Albion Band and Brass Monkey, and mainly works as a solo musician. For further information email: squeezer@johnkirkpatrick.co.uk |

Geboren Groninger Remco Sietsema was vorig jaar nog op Noorderzon te zien in Vluchtgoud. Dit jaar staat hij in de sfeervolle Spiegeltent, samen met zijn band, zelfgeschreven composities en een gloednieuw repertoire. In 2017 verscheen zijn debuutalbum Sultana, waarop de trekharmonica – uiteraard - centraal staat. Sietsema combineert vele stijlen: van funky wereldmuziek tot jazzy reggae en folk en geeft je ongeacht het weer het gevoel van een zwoele zomeravond. Na vanavond vergeet je de trekharmonica nooit meer – beloofd. www.remcosietsema.nl |

Musique Trad du Québec avec Marie-Desneiges Hamel et Gaëtan Lefebvre - Canadaby Harley Jones |
 Dimanche 2 septembre 2018, Soirée de musique Trad du Québec20 h, École secondaire Louis-Jacques-Casault • Salle Jean-Pierre-Després Native de la région de Québec, Marie-Desneiges Hamel a découvert l’accordéon diatonique grâce à son grand-père. Entre l’âge de sept et neuf ans, elle débute l’apprentissage de l’instrument à l’oreille auprès de Suzie Gagnon et de Réjean Clouet. C’est en 2009, à l’âge de vingt-et-un ans, que sa passion se ravive et qu’elle décide de se consacrer plus sérieusement à la musique. Au fil des ans, elle s’est produite sur différentes scènes, dont celle du Festival celtique de Québec, des Tambours de Portneuf, du Carrefour mondial de l’accordéon et des Rendez-vous ès Trad. Elle a aussi cumulé des expériences en matière d’animation musicale (ex. : parc d’amusement Woodooliparc, résidences pour aînés, fêtes privées) et d’enseignement (École de musique Denys-Arcand, camp De souches à oreilles). On peut aujourd’hui l’entendre sur le disque Parcours d’accordéons : collectif de la relève (2018). Depuis maintenant trois ans, Marie-Desneiges forme le duo Des Neiges d’Antan avec Gaëtan Lefebvre. Ensemble, ils se plaisent tout autant à jouer des pièces qui font taper du pied que des morceaux qui font vibrer l’âme. http://www.accordeonmontmagny.com/marie-desneiges-hamel/ |

De Akoestische KAMER - Hollandby Diatonic News |
 |
| First of the season!! Irish legends playing high level Instrumental music De Akoestische KAMER ha aggiunto un evento. 1 h · Charlie Piggot, oorspronkelijk uit Co. Cork, begon op jonge leeftijd al met muziek maken en was één van de oprichters van de populaire folk groep De Dannan. In die formatie heeft hij opgetreden in onder andere locaties als Carnegie Hall en de Royal Albert Hall. Hij begon zijn carrière als banjo speler maar heeft op latere leeftijd zich meester gemaakt over de knoppen-accordeon in de karakteristieke C#/D stijl. Zijn spel wordt door Living Tradition omschreven als “(…) uit het hart van de melodie, nimmer slordig of gehaast, maar altijd open en uitnodigend.” Gerry Harrington komt uit Kenmare, Co.Kerry, waar hij op jonge leeftijd de Ierse vioolstijl oppakte in een omgeving van invloedrijke spelers als Connie O’Connell en Denis McMahon. In de jaren 90 heeft Gerry twee hoog aangeschreven CDs uitgebracht - één met accordionist Eoin O’Sullivan en een tweede met de Sligo fluitist Peter Horan. Zijn solo album ‘At Home’ is een intiem portret van de schoonheid van de Ierse fiddle muziek waarop hij verschillende regionale speelstijlen met grote zorg combineert. Charlie en Gerry hebben in 2015 samen het album ‘The New Road’ uitgebracht wat een fraai voorbeeld is van hun muzikale chemie. In dit concert zullen zij hun muzikale kunnen combineren en u laten ervaren waar het in Ierse traditionele muziek om gaat: genieten van mooie melodiën met een eigen invulling maar altijd met respect naar de meesters uit het verleden! |

CD Hemels Douwe by Shillelagh - FRanceby Diatonic News |
 Rosée céleste.La rosée qui, comme tombée du ciel, vient se déposer délicatement sur le sol. Le soleil se lève tout juste, il annonce le jour nouveau. Pourtant un pied agile foule déjà l'herbe humide, bientôt suivi par d'autres. Déjà ? Ou plutôt encore ! Car ces gens-là prennent un malin plaisir à défier le rythme de la nature. Leurs jambes voltigent, leurs corps virevoltent en cadence. Tantôt enlacés, tantôt fiers et droits, pantins parfaitement articulés, ils sont suspendus au fil des notes de marionnettistes malicieux. A y regarder de plus près on ne saurait bien dire finalement qui des uns ou des autres tire les ficelles... En harmonie presque parfaite, danseurs et musiciens jettent leurs dernières forces dans une spirale de mouvement où chacun s'accorde. Bientôt ne resteront plus que des souvenirs d'une nuit hors du temps où les empreintes dans l'herbe humide seront les derniers témoins d'un rêve partagé. A tous les danseurs et musiciens du petit matin... 1. Het viel eens hemels douwe (Traditionnel) 2. Scottisch van Elewijt - Scottisch van Betekom (Traditionnels) 3.
