Tribute Concert to Gervasio Marcosignori, Ascoli Piceno – Italyby Rob Howard |
 On Sunday March 20th, 6.30pm, Renzo Ruggieri performs a concert in memory of Gervasio Marcosignori (1927-203), whose passing three years ago caused widespread mourning in the accordion world. The concert takes place at the Auditorium Emidio Neroni, Rua del Cassero, Ascoli Piceno.Gervasio Marcosignori, from Castelfidardo, Ancona, was one of the most universally esteemed accordionists of his generation. In the 1950s he emerged as a major concert artist, and in the 1960s was a pioneer of the electronic accordion. Awarded the ‘World Oscar’ in 1959, Marcosignori performed with distinction in many countries, and his performances and recordings were regarded by many as the epitome of good technique and musicality. |
