Gervasio Marcosignori (1927-2013), one of the most revered accordionists of his generation, was one of a very few who could genuinely be described as a legend in his lifetime. Marcosignori’s playing career went through various phases, including acoustic playing with rhythm accompaniment, solo acoustic playing, and his electronic accordion years, all of which are represented on this double CD. His recordings included Continental music, accordion specialities, and classical music. The tracks are mixed up to provide variety, and are not set in any chronological order, but serve to showcase the talents of one of the accordion world’s stellar performers. This modestly priced double CD is available from Pearl Fawcett-Adriano, and is a fine souvenir of the recorded work of this much loved and admired virtuoso. Disc 1: Tapestry, Migliavacca, Preludio, Carnival of Venice, Bel Viso, Czardas, Mannequins, Babo, Irish Medley, Hawaiian Lullaby, Mosaico Espanol, Musetta, Dizzy Fingers, Mascherata, Corale, Strauss Medley, Notturno Blu, French Medley Disc 2: Tamboo, Soir de Paris, Acquarelli Cubani, Italian Medley, Dark Eyes, El Caballero, Fileuse, Pupazetti, Scottish Medley, Danza Orientale, Flight of the Bumble Bee, Moine, Dantesque, Souvenir D’Hawaii, Balletomania, Safari Fiesta, Carillon, Somersault Polka Price: £10 plus postage.
