Congresso CIA online - Finlandia

CIA letterhead
Mirco Patarini, Kimmo MattilaGeorg HettmanLa Confédération Internationale des Accordéonistes (CIA) è stata costituita nel 1935 e 85 anni dopo nel 2020 conta 43 membri, molti dei quali sono organizzazioni nazionali di fisarmonica.

Per la prima volta in assoluto, a causa delle restrizioni di viaggio del Covid-19, la CIA terrà un Congresso utilizzando internet sabato sera, orario dell'Europa centrale.

Il Congresso guidato dal Presidente Mirco Patarini e dal Segretario Generale Kimmo Mattila discuterà degli entusiasmanti concerti e di altri programmi per la Coupe Mondiale 2021 a Monaco, dal 13 al 17 ottobre 2021. L'organizzatore ospitante Deutscher Harmonika-Verband e. V., (DHV), delegato Georg Hettmann (foto a destra), riferirà i loro piani al Congresso. Il regolamento della Coupe Mondiale 2021, i dettagli di viaggio e alloggio saranno pubblicati prima di Natale.

Al Congresso si discuterà anche dei piani per un'altra innovativa Giornata mondiale della fisarmonica (6 maggio) con vari eventi in tutto il mondo e un importante programma internazionale online pianificato dai membri della CIA in diversi paesi.

Un report completo del Congresso e dei piani futuri per il 2021 sarà pubblicato qui venerdì prossimo.

AAA cancella Festival 2021, Conshohocken - USA

AAA header
Joseph CicconeÈ con grande delusione che, a causa dell'attuale situazione relativa alla pandemia mondiale (Covid 19), il Comitato Esecutivo e il Consiglio di Amministrazione dell'AAA hanno preso la necessaria decisione di annullare il Festival AAA dal 14 al 18 luglio 2021 a West Philadelphia.

Ci impegniamo per la sicurezza pubblica, compresa quella dei nostri numerosi fedeli partecipanti, ospiti e artisti, e per aiutare a sostenere i forti sforzi della nostra nazione per aiutare a controllare la diffusione del COVID-19, ci uniamo a una lunga lista di eventi che sono già stati cancellati. Sebbene la pandemia abbia cambiato le nostre vite in tanti modi, troviamo sempre un lato positivo.

Cercate le nuove iniziative digitali di AAA attraverso lezioni online, seminari, concorsi di concerti e la cerimonia/concerto AAA Lifetime Achievement Award in onore di Linda Solely Reed. Ci renderà più facile comunicare senza perdere un colpo.

C'è un mondo meraviglioso su Zoom che vi aspetta! Non vediamo l'ora di vedere tutti i nostri colleghi fisarmonicisti online. State al sicuro, state bene e mantenete la fede!
Buone vacanze a tutti.

Cordiali saluti,
Joseph Ciccone, Presidente dell'AAA
