Austria 2014 Selezione Coupe Mondiale a 'Tag der Harmonika ' - Austria

Quest'anno il 'Tag der Harmonika ' si è svolta dal 1 al 4 maggio a St. Peter- Freienstein, che si trova nella splendida regione della Stiria. Il concorso ha attirato più di 350 partecipanti e comprende categorie per solisti di fisarmonica, duo, ensemble e orchestre, per armonica e 'Steirische Harmonika' (Stiria Harmonica, un tipo di fisarmonica diatonica), che è diventato molto popolare di recente.

Il 2014 è un anno molto speciale per Confederazione Fisarmonica dell'Austria UAV perché si festeggia il suo 60° anniversario organizzando il più prestigioso concorso internazionale di fisarmonica, la 'Coupe Mondiale', a Salisburgo dal 27 ottobre al 2 novembre.

Danijel Piller, Nikolas Lazic e Johannes Münzner sono stati selezionati per rappresentare l'Austria alla Coupe Mondiale 2014. Anche gli studenti polacchi Marcin Jablonski e Kacpar Stalewski, da Katowice, hanno contribuito l'altissimo livello di questa categoria.

Michael Frankenberger è stato molto convincente nel classico juniores, mentre Nina e Stefan Djordjevic hanno preso i loro primi premi nelle categorie da principiante, mostrando il loro grande potenziale per il futuro.

Andreas Schmiedhofer, dal Sud - Tirolo, non solo ha ottenuto il primo premio nella categoria più alta del concorso diatonica, ma anche al concorso per ricordare Erich Moser (ex campione del mondo diatonico), una categoria organizzata per la prima volta. Come al solito, ci sono state molte esibizioni eccellenti di duetti di diatoniche e complessi di musica folk.

Gottfried Hubmann era l'organizzatore di questo evento, ed è stato ricompensato ‘Merited Friend of the Styrian Harmonica’ dal presidente della HVÖ Werner Weibert. Altre immagini sono disponibili all'indirizzo www.harmonikaverband.at

The event was organized and curated by Kathleen Delaney Dance Co. and Italian Accordion Academy - a platform for research in the field of production and pedagogy of contemporary music and dance.

Guests of the Italian Cultural Institute in Amsterdam, The Musicians of the Italian Accordion Academy (Vincenzo De Nitto, Fábio Palma, Andrzej Grzybowski, Przemek Wojchiechowski, Marco Pasculli, Ezio Testa) have presented a program of original and transcribed works for classical accordion instrument of great relevance in contemporary classical music. Works by Ligeti, Bizet, Kusyakov, Tiensuu, Krzanowski, Jacomucci, Roberto Beltrami, Takahashi, Ganzer, Pärt, Bach, Ginastera, Komitas, Vlasov and Taktakishvili.

On April 4, at the famous hall of the Bimhuis, historic stage for improvised and borderline music, was premiered Suite Venetienne/Follow me, a new creation of the choreographer Kathleen Delaney inspired by the intriguing multimedia text of the photographer Sophie Calle, who followed strangers to photograph them, and that in this text with thoughts and photographs documenting a journey through the labyrinthine city of Venice, made ??undercover looking for a man met briefly in Paris.

Afterwards, two compositions for choir and accordions: Arcana (2013) a piece for choir and accordion ensemble by Claudio Jacomucci. The Choir Durantino from Urbania, under the direction of Simone Spinaci performed with the accordion ensemble and dancers Kathleen Delaney and Roberto Lori.

The second part of the festival will be held instead in Urbino, at Raffaello Sanzio Theatre on June 6 and 7, to resurface the Dutch program with a special guest: the poet Mariangela Gualtieri, founder of the Theatre Valdoca together with Cesare Ronconi, who will present the work Fraternità Solare, a series of poems that coexist in the musical score created by Claudio Jacomucci for 6 accordions, arranged according to a criterion of spatial acoustics, creating textures and resonances to echo the word and call for the break from the imaginary.
