“Artigiani del Suono”, 150 Years of Accordion Production Illustrated – Italyby Holda Paoletti-Kampl |
 |
| A very special historical book “Artigiani del Suono” (the true story of the accordion) has been presented in various cities around the Castelfidardo region during the past month and we have been reporting about it already. But we think it important to show more about this book with its excellent graphic print quality by Tecnostampa, Italy and from the collection of pictures by accordion historian Beniamino Bugiolacchi from Castelfidardo. All the historic photographs are owned by Bugiolacchi who collected some 273 historic colour print pages over many years. A big part of the book is dedicated to Paolo Soprani, the first accordion manufacturer in Castelfidardo, who created the birth of a great new industry in the Marche region which were mainly farmers during this period. Quickly, the new manufacturing product has changed the small city, where almost all inhabitants from Castelfidardo and surroundings were in one way or the other involved in producing accordions. Collaborators for the realization of this book were: Roberto Carlorosi, Fabio Buschi, Studio Conti with Daniela Giovagnetti. If you want to have this wonderful book for your library – contact the accordion Museum Castelfidardo (€32) – you will enjoy the view of many historical moments of our beloved instrument. |
