![]() Felice Fugazza's "Scherzo" (1922-2007), published in 1953 by Farfisa (later Bérben) editions, is one of the first significant Italian compositions dedicated to an accordion ensemble. The author, a truly multifaceted musician (multi-instrumentalist, teacher, composer, arranger, publicist, designer), was one of the fundamental figures for the affirmation and enhancement of the accordion instrument. The present was most likely not our best interpretation, but it is certainly the only one left to testify the ensemble's activity in the early 1980s. The recording, now historical, was made in Potenza Picena (MC) in the summer of 1983; when the group recorded an entire concert / record program in a single session, practically live. Later it was included in the CD "Accordiones in concert", distributed by Prendinota editions. Performers: Alessandro Mugnoz, 1st accordion Miriam Mugnoz, 2nd accordion Andrea Carnevalini, 3rd accordion Fabrizio Sbacco, 4th accordion Edgardo Mugnoz, bass accordion |
