14 Years Ago: 2002 - Galla-Rini Recovering After Taking a Fall – USAby Rob Howard |
 The Accordions Worldwide News for April 5th 2002 included news that the veteran American accordionist/composer Anthony Galla-Rini (1904-2006) had had an accident, and was hospitalised. Galla-Rini, whose accomplishments in the accordion world outrank most others, was an active teacher, composer and performer throughout his long life, and did indeed recover from the fall he suffered at the age of 98. He was an example to us all.Galla-Rini Recovering after Taking a Fall – USA Contributed by Kevin Friedrich Maestro Anthony Galla-Rini is recovering comfortably at the Palomar Rehabilitation Care Center after breaking his hip during a recent fall. He will remain at the Center for about five weeks and doctors have told him he should recover fully. Mr Galla-Rini has already had to get out of bed and stand up and, while he says it hurt tremendously, he also reports he is extremely glad that nursing staff made him do it. The doctors are also treating him for a touch of emphysema while he remains at the Care Center. Mr Galla-Rini is in good spirits and (as is usual for him) is more worried about his musical activities, and so informs everyone that the arrangements for his July Music Camp are already completed. Fantastic! Well wishes may be sent to: Mr. Anthony Galla-Rini, Redwood Town Court, #203, 500 E. Valley Pkwy, Escondido, CA 92025-3006. We wish the Maestro a speedy recovery! |
