Morley Accordion Orchestra Concert, London – UKby Rob Howard |
 |
| Morley Accordion Orchestra (MD Ian Watson) perform in a special concert taking place at the Emma Conns Hall, Morley College, on Saturday May 4th, 7.30pm. This concert includes a new commission (by Jason Carr), ‘Europa’, a wonderful roller coaster of a piece taking one from the dark streets of 1950's Moscow to the jazz fueled cafes of 1960's Rome, via a siesta in Madrid, and a stunning final movement which depicts an ocean liner arriving in Stockholm. The 30 strong orchestra with full percussion section will also play pieces by Piazzolla, Henri Mancini, and Ian Watson. Also performing are the quintet – ‘Accordion5’ - with Julie North, Shona Holmes, Maria Serdyuk , Sarah Crisp, and Ian Watson. The quintet perform Ian Watson’s new arrangements of 'Summer' from the ‘Four Seasons’, by Vivaldi, and 'Orawa', a stunning piece by W. Kilar, as well as original pieces for accordion ensemble. The concert is also being recorded to become the orchestra’s second live CD. Morley Accordion Orchestra and ‘Accordion5’ are travelling to Austria to compete in the World Music Festival in May.
