| Kansas City based ensemble Vivant! and Karen Fremar, US Champion (A.A.A.) and C.I.A. World Virtuoso Entertainment Champion, recently completed a successful and enjoyable concert tour of Wisconsin. The ensemble performed full concerts Sunday May 22nd on the Harrington Arts Center 2011 Concert Series in Superior, WI; and Monday May 23rd for the Milwaukee Accordion Club in Milwaukee, WI. The mixed ensemble programmed five original Fremar works, including A.A.A. Commissioned work in honor of Faithe Deffner – ‘Herricks Road’, ‘Jammin’, ‘Free’ (tango), ‘Whatever You Do’, and the Wisconsin Premiere of her new Courtney S. Turner Charitable Trust commissioned work, ‘Night at the Pla-Mor’. Mixing blues, swing, pop, tango, polka, and originals, Vivant! spans the gamut of musical tastes, but not without adding their original touch to each work. The innovative group of musicians was received with great enthusiasm by both audiences, with performances resulting in standing ovations and encore requests. Vivant’s program illustrated the versatility of the accordion in a setting of synthesized sound and innovative percussion. The group features from one to three accordions, two performers on Korg and Roland Synthesizers, vocals, and a an array of percussion; including set, congas, djembe, and other interesting percussion toys, such as the rain stick and hotel desk bell. Vivant! enjoyed a tour of the 1700+ fascinating bellows driven instruments in the World of Accordions Museum, given by Museum Director, Dr. Helmi Harrington, and also were treated to a beautiful reception following their Superior concert (which also celebrated Dr. Harrington’s birthday). The group was excited to find many enthusiastic accordion aficionados in Wisconsin and enjoyed sharing their new brand of music, now dubbed ‘The Kansas City Sound’. Sherry Huiras, Board President, and Shirl Berry, Past President of the Milwaukee Accordion Club Board, were instrumental in coordinating the group’s Milwaukee performance. For a full report of the group’s tour or for additional information go to the Vivant! website. |
