Concert in Rostov - Russiaby Harley Jones |
 On December 18th 2010, in the Great Hall of the Rostov State Philharmonic was held a concert titled ‘Parade of the Ensembles!’ The concert featured popular ensembles of folk instruments of southern Russia: ‘Doncy’, ‘Divo’, ‘Fun’, and an Irish folk music ensemble ‘Foggy Dew’, and ‘Gala Trio’. The concert also starred Honored Artist of Russia, one of the finest accordionists in the world, Yuri Shishkin (picture right).The concert hall was packed, and more than 700 people attended the Yuri Shishkin concert, which ended with a standing ovation and was a great success. The organizers were the International Center for Music ‘Harmony’ of Rostov - a non-profit public organization. During its existence the Centre has organized a number of significant activities in the field of musical culture in southern Russia. Among them are concerts with the legendary American accordionist Art Van Damme, the Frank Morocco Quartet, Vladimir Danilin, Festival ‘100 years of accordion’, and the French accordionist Alan Musichini. All these events were very successful, reported by the media, and attracted the widespread interest of amateur and professional accordionists. A major accordion event will be organised in December 2011, to be announced shortly. |
