 |
  The closing date for the 2019 NZAA South Pacific Accordion Championships & Festival entries is 14th April 2019. This year’s event, which will be held at the Raye Freedman Arts Centre on June 1st and 2nd, will celebrate “10 Years On from the 2009 Coupe Mondiale” which the NZAA hosted in Auckland. As part of the celebrations, the NZAA has invited three of the 2009 Coupe Mondiale winners as guest artists. They are Grayson Masefield (NZ) winner of 2009 Coupe Mondiale and winner of 2009 Virtuoso Entertainment, Tian Jianan (China) winner of 2009 Junior Virtuoso Entertainment and Cory Pesaturo (USA) winner of 2009 Digital category. The weekend will also feature a Massed Orchestra and all of those who took part in the "World Accordion Orchestra III" will be invited to perform again. Gary Daverne is conducting Auckland March (a commissioned work for the 2009 Coupe Mondiale New Zealand Orchestra) and Bryan Holden (conductor of the Mandolinata Orchestra) will conduct one work. The rules for the international categories closely follow the rules of the Coupe Mondiale. The South Pacific international concert music category has exactly the same rules as the Coupe Mondiale Masters category and the South Pacific entertainment category has exactly the same rules as the Coupe Mondiale Virtuoso Entertainment category. Similarly Junior (under 18 years) South Pacific entertainment category. The South Pacific Junior solo concert category has the same rules as the first round of the Coupe Mondiale Junior category.
