Kramfors Accordion Festival – Swedenby Jörgen Sundeqvist |
Sundeqvist Musik and Kramfors Dragspelsklubb arranged a large accordion festival in Kramfors on August 7th and 8th, 2021. During the festival Sundeqvist Musik presented an accordion exhibition together with Karlssons Musik, which included approximately 60 new and used accordions, bags, straps, microphones, sheet-music etc. Over 500 visitors attended the event and enjoyed a variety of accordion music in all forms as well as the exhibition. Many well known accordionists performed during the day, including Jörgen Sundeqvist, Päivi Mettälä, Lars Karlsson, Leo Florin, Bröderna Lindkvist and others. Special guest was the President of the CIA and President of Scandalli Accordions, Mirco Patarini from Castelfidardo, Italy. Mirco presented a special gift from Castelfidardo to the unique Accordion Archive here in Kramfors. The gift (picture above left) was a special little accordion made out of wood with a clock inside the bellows. The festival finished with a concert at the Gudmundrå Church in Kramfors on Sunday evening with performances by Mirco Patarini, Jörgen Sundeqvist, Päivi Mettälä, Lars Karlsson and Leo Florin. The festival was a huge success and organisers plan a repeat next year. |
