Morley Accordion Orchestra Album on iTunes / Amazon, London – UKby Rob Howard |
 |
| The London-based Morley Accordion Orchestra (MD Ian Watson) recently released a CD, 'Europa', and this has now been released on iTunes, via Amazon, and lots of other online shops. This second album was recorded live in London, and is named after Jason Carr's 'Europa', which received its premiere performance in the concert. A whistle stop tour around Europe, from scary Moscow to sleepy Madrid to jazzy Rome, this performance is full of surprises and real quality playing. Also featured on the album is '2012', an Olympic inspired piece written for the orchestra by its conductor, Ian Watson. Morley Accordion Orchestra, formed in 1999, meets at Morley College, 61 Westminster Bridge Rd, London SE1 7HT. The MAO plays a wide variety of music - from original works for accordion orchestra to show tunes and film scores. There are now 30 members of the orchestra and for concerts are joined by percussionists. In May 2013 MAO performed at the World Music Festival in Innsbruck, Austria. Future plans include a Christmas Concert at the Lost Theatre, London, on December 8th at 3pm and the release of their 2nd album, ‘Europa’. In 2014 MAO will host a joint concert with the Nuremburg Accordion Orchestra at St. John's, Smith Square, Westminster, on June 8th. For further information email: morleyaccordions@gmail.com |
