On Saturday November 26th Håvard Svendsrud performed his fifth accordion concert at the Oslo Concert Hall in Norway. Guest musicians appearing came from Tromsø in Northern Norway and Stockholm in Sweden. Music by the legendary Pietro Frosini was a common thread in the program. Associate Professor of electric guitar at the University of Tromsø, Tore-Morten Andreassen Figenschow and his band performed a series of virtuoso Frosini pieces, and really impressed the audience. Figenschow has accordion compositions transcribed to guitar as one of his specialties. He played ‘Hot Fingers’, ‘Dizzy Accordion’, ‘La Mariposita’, and more. Håvard Svendsrud and Sweden’s Daniel Andersson played their own solo sections. Svendsrud played ‘Italian Polka’ (S. Rachmaninov / Yashkewich), ‘Prelude, Op. 31’ (A. Volpi), ‘Rhapsody no. 2 C-minor’ (P. Frosini) and more. Andersson played a Russian folk tune, and ‘Cavatina Figaro’ (G. Rossini). The duo Dos Fueyes (Two Bellows) - accordion player Daniel Andersson and bandoneonist Jens Lundberg - played the Argentine tango. It has become a tradition that Håvard Svendsrud and his guest artists play something together as a finale. The concert this year was no exception - all the musicians played together ‘Bel Fiore’ (P. Frosini) and ‘Se Armo’ (A. Piazzolla). For further information email: haavard@hsvendsrud.com Photo below: Jens Lundberg (bandoneon) and Daniel Andersson (accordion). |
