Bernadette
Conlon Concert, Salt Lake City - USA
Contributed
by Jay Todd
Bernadette
Conlon, Australia's Ambassador of the Accordion, performed her
first concert on a five-stop U.S. and Canadian tour to several standing
ovations, and encore-demanding, cheering audience at the Salt Lake
Area Accordion Club Tuesday June 21st.
Beginning with her rendition of Bach's 'Toccata in D', which she
calls 'Hot Toccata', Bernadette worked her way through a variety
of selections from her eight CDs during the first set. Following
a 10-minute intermission during which time Bernadette was autographing
her CDs for enthusiastic new fans, she returned to the stage for
a second set of audience requests. She played everything from 'Poet
and Peasant Overture' to Ukrainian melodies to' Flight of the Bumble
Bee' to' Beer Barrel Polka', before ending with a stunning encore
of 'Czardas'.
Jay Todd, Salt Lake Area Accordion Club president, said after the
cheering 117 attendees quietened down, "You are a legend in
your beloved Melbourne. Now you can claim Salt Lake City as your
second home! Enthusiasts hung around for nearly an hour as they
acquired her CDs and waited for autographs from the 'Pride of Australia'.
We've had a number of prominent American accordionists perform for
our club, but none has captured our audiences as did Bernadette
with her skills, aesthetic interpretations, and masterful performing."
The
Salt Lake Area Accordion Club, founded by Jay and Janet Todd, Janet
herself being an accordionist of national repute in the U.S., is
in its third year but already is one of the strong accordion clubs
in America. Arriving in Salt Lake City Sunday evening, June 19th,
Bernadette and her mother, Lyn flew to Seattle, Washington, where
they motored to Leavenworth for the Leavenworth Accordion Festival.
Following that stop, Bernadette will fly to Las Vegas, Nevada to
perform at the Las
Vegas International Accordion Convention, then fly to Victoria,
Canada to perform at an accordion club concert there, with a tour-ending
performance of their 23-day journey at Kimberley, British Columbia
for the Kimberley
Old Time Accordion Championships.

Isle
of Skye Accordion and Fiddle Festival, Scotland - UK
Contributed
by Rob
Howard
The
inaugural Isle of Skye Accordion and Fiddle Festival, held from
May 26th to 28th, was acclaimed by its organisers to be an unqualified
success. The festival was centred on the Royal Hotel, Portree, where
music sessions ran almost continuously throughout the weekend, involving
about 60 musicians, from far and wide.
The accordionists included Tom Orr and his Scottish Dance Band,
the Ballochmyle Ceilidh Band, Black Rose Ceilidh Band, Sam and James
Stewart, Alan Palmer, Lorraine Gillies, Edward MacLeod, Willie Shankie,
Ian Cameron, Marian Anderson, Charlie MacLeod, Geordie Wark, and
Ian 'Tonkan' MacDonald. Charlie MacLeod held an accordion workshop
in the Skye Gathering Hall.
A reviewer has stated that the festival was "an exceptional
weekend of traditional Scottish music and dance. Moving from venue
to venue, the same faces would appear and disappear as the entire,
toe tapping and convivial population rotated from pub to pub, whether
following their favourite artiste or trying to hear as many different
players as possible. At one point in the Royal Hotel, eight accordionists,
a drummer and a keyboard player, from different parts of the country,
were performing together - what music!
The dance, in The Skye Gathering Hall, to the Ballochmyle Ceilidh
Band, proved to be a success beyond everyone's wildest expectations,
the atmosphere was out of this world, and everyone was on the floor
for every dance, teenagers and grannies alike. You could feel your
chair moving to the rhythm of the dance as the floorboards and joists
in the old hall got their best flexing in 20 years". The committee
is already planning next year's event.
