World Accordion Day Facebook Streaming Platformby Harley Jones |
 |
  The CIA is pleased to welcome you to World Accordion Day (WAD) on the official Coupe Mondiale Facebook streaming platform. Since 2009, each May 6th, the CIA has been promoting World Accordion Day. Our first WAD was held on 6th May 2009, marking the 180th birthday of the accordion - May 6th 1829, the date the accordion was first patented, in Vienna, Austria, by Cyrillius Demien. For 2020, with so much of the world in lockdown and restricted to their homes, the CIA is running a 12 hour WAD show on the Coupe Mondiale Facebook streaming. All recordings, interviews and performances will also be published on the World Accordion Day website and the World Accordion Day China server and local China platforms. The show hosts are CIA former President and currrent CIA Ambassador Kevin Friedrich (USA) and CIA Music Committee Deputy Chairman Grayson Masefield with technical assistance from CIA Public Relations Harley Jones and Accordions Wordwide staff. Broadcast times will be published here and on the WAD website in the next few days. |
