Born in Breda Cisoni on May 23rd, 1922, from the 'boy prodigy' that he was, Wolmer already at 16 had his own orchestra with which he performed for many months in some large hotels. In 1947, the famous duo Kramer-Beltrami was formed while with the advent of television in Italy he formed the Trio with sisters Luisa and Leda, with whom he toured the Middle East in the 1950s. In 1960 he had an important recognition: the "World Accordion Oscar". Extraordinary virtuoso, Beltrami is rightly remembered also as an imaginative composer: "Il Treno", "Carovana negra", "Squadrone bianco". |
