Dr.William Schimmel’s 2018 Accordion Seminars: ‘Thinking Inside the Box’, New York - USA

AAA header
Bill SchimmelThe annual American Accordionists' Association (AAA) Master Class and Concert Series (The Seminars) will take place on July 27th, 28th and 29th at the Tenri Cultural Institute, 43A West 13th Street, in New York City. Master classes are at 3pm, and concerts at 7pm. Dr. William Schimmel (picture right) will again be the moderator and curator.

The 2018 Seminars will cover a wide range of topics and will focus on new methods of teaching – ‘Earteach’, ‘Eyeteach’ and ‘Duplex’ learning, as well as the study of various method books that have disappeared from the market.

The aim is to re-discover some of the rich tradition and culture that may have been lost or discarded. There will also be an ‘Accordio/Dalcrose’ segment using ‘Movement’ and ‘Eurythmics’. Also, a seminar on ‘What it takes to survive as a New York Accordionist’ - applicable to any career planning anywhere.

Dr. Schimmel has performed with most of the major symphony orchestras in America, and many chamber music groups in New York. Pop star colleagues range from Sting to Tom Waits, who has commented, “Bill Schimmel doesn't play the accordion, he is the accordion”. His many accomplishments include founding the ‘Tango Project’, teaching, leading master classes, composing, recording, and performing on movie soundtracks.
