Have YOU Made Plans For World Accordion Day 2011?by Harley Jones |
 Festival, concert and competition organizers, accordion orchestras, all performers. What are YOU doing for World Accordion Day 2011 to promote the accordion in your area and country? World Accordion Day is on May 6th, which is the day the accordion was patented in 1829.World Accordion Day first started in 2009 and has been a huge success, generating enormous positive publicity for the accordion. A key part of this event is the World Accordion Day website. Every association, group, orchestra, performer and teacher, is asked to actively support this event by encouraging national and local accordion activities to happen in their country on this day or the weekend either side of Accordion Day if that should be more convenient. Everyone can register their World Accordion Day activity on the website and send a report of their event after, for that website. This site is already a very valuable resource for the media reporting World Accordion Day. CIA President Raymond Bodell stated “No event is too big or too small. ALL accordion events celebrating World Accordion Day are welcome. This is a promotion for the accordion in which every accordion enthusiast can participate and help bring our accordion world together as well as strongly promote the accordion to your population.” Therefore, I urge you to make plans now for next May and encourage broad support from all levels of accordionists for this exciting new project. Let all accordionists work together to make strong promotion to our populations with World Accordion Day.” |
