The 20th Anniversary Accordion Gala Las Vegas International Accordion Convention was held October 14 to 17, 2019. The theme was a roaring 20’s celebration of all the wonderful years, the great artists and many memories associated with this event.

Organiser Paul Pasquali transports all accordions, music and materials for his convention shop along with sound and lighting from Salt Lake City. This year Paul proudly launched the new model "Concerto 2019". This wonderful event featured Prof. Joan Sommers conducting the Las Vegas International Accordion Orchestra (video in Daily Reports 17th). I encourage all to attend next year Monday October 26 to Thursday October 29, 2020. Picture below: Conductor Joan Sommers thanks her orchestra players at the end of the concert.
