 Видео: отрывки из мюзета Анаис Бессьер CD "Une pointe d'accent" (монтаж Александры Асторг).Молодая французская аккордеонистка Анаис Бессьер получила Премию Фрэнсиса Бакстера 2020 года за свой мюзетный компакт-диск "Une pointe d'accent". Эта награда вручается SACEM (Французским обществом композиторов и авторов песен) за лучший мюзет-компакт-диск года в память о великом аккордеонисте / композиторе Фрэнсисе Бакстере (аранжировщике известной пьесы для мюзета "les Fiancés d'Auvergne" ). Анаис Бессьер (22 года) играет на аккордеоне с 9 лет. Ее страсть к этому инструменту подогревалась тем, что бабушка и дедушка брали ее на танцы каждые выходные. Родом из Юго-Западного региона Лота, она училась у Кристиана Льоренса, позже продолжила обучение в известной международной аккордеонной школе CNIMA, основанной Жаком Морне и Натали Буше. В 2017 году Анаис получила диплом французской национальной консерватории DEM с оценкой A + и поздравлением жюри. В 2018 году она заняла 4-е место на конкурсе Клингенталь в Германии, а в 2019 году получила приз зрительских симпатий. Ее профессора в CNIMA, Жак Морне и Натали Буше, говорят: «Анаис, безусловно, одна из будущих ведущих аккордеонистов этого нового поколения. За этим первым компакт-диском последуют многие другие». CNIMA, как известно, является стартовой площадкой для карьеры многих аккордеонистов, включая Алена Мусичини, Доми Эморин, Фелисьена Брют, Винсента Лермета и Кристин Росси, и многих других. Школа предлагает дневное обучение, семинары, занятия по меню и уроки по скайпу, которые открыты для всех стилей, всех уровней и всех возрастов.

Ушел Стефан Шапюи - Швейцарияby Harley Jones |
 |
 Аккордеонный мир в трауре, и на этой неделе льется дань уважения после кончины Стефана Шапюи.Кристин Савиоз (Le Nouvelliste в Вале, Швейцария) написала следующую статью: «Стефан Шапюи, виртуоз игры на аккордеоне и бандонеоне, скончался во вторник после долгой и тяжелой болезни. Известие о его смерти вызвало много печали среди художников Вале и других мест, и в социальных сетях хлынули почтения. Музыкант Ролан Шпренгер не может поверить в это, до сих пор вспоминает свою встречу со Стефаном сразу после прошлогоднего Дня винодела. Стефан Шапюи был одним из солистов шоу. "Он был сияющим!" - добавляет Шпренгер. «Он любил этот проект», - подтверждает музыкант Эрве Форкла, давний друг виртуоза, который сотрудничал с ним около тридцати лет. «Он был мастером игры на аккордеоне, его знали и уважали во всем мире. Фактически, он давал концерты в США, Париже, Северном Китае, Бразилии, Африке, Италии», - добавляет Эрве Форклаз. Помимо концертов и выступлений, Стефан Шапюи, обладавший виртуозным владением аккордеоном с отличием и поздравлениями жюри, а также педагогический диплом с отличием, был очень уважаемым учителем в Высшей музыкальной школе Лозанны, Кантональной консерватории Нион. и EJMA-VS. С 1983 по 1992 год он был многократным победителем международных соревнований. В 2010 году он был также награжден Государственной премией Вале. По этому поводу Шпренгер написал текст о своем друге. «Стефан придает аккордеону звание благородства. Он сказал слишком скромно:« Все, что я сделал, это прыгнул в брешь пионеров, как мои учителя, которые боролись за признание аккордеона », - описал тогда Шпренгер. Стефан Шапюи, отец пятерых детей, был скромным человеком, который влюбился в Вале несколько лет назад. «Он был очень щедрым музыкантом, популярным и очень любимым. Здесь, в Вале, все артисты, которым требовалась аккордеонная музыка в своих записях, работали с ним. Все расстроены его смертью», - говорит Эрве Форкла. |

Pieces such as "Preludio" op.31, "Fileuse", "Concertino D Minor", etc. have entered the repertoire of many Performers internationally.

 Veteran accordion entertainer Johnny Coleclough (picture left) passed away on October 7th in Blackpool, Lancashire, at the age of 87. Johnny played the accordion from a young age and often joked that during the Blitz in WW2 others would leave the air raid shelters, preferring to listen to the bombs dropping to his accordion playing! He went on to play in bands, and eventually became a solo entertainer using electronic accordions and also singing. In the 1970s Johnny Coleclough was resident at Blackpool Tower, performed in holiday resorts in Spain, and in the 1980s and 90s was resident at the Piccadilly Bierkeller in Manchester. He also played accordion as a dep in concerts with Mantovani and Count Basie, and later played Tyros keyboards in social clubs. A popular and charismatic figure at accordion festivals in England during the 1980s and 1990s, Johnny ran buskers and stage presentation workshops, and also did compering. He performed at several accordion clubs, and was the President of Stockport Accordion Club from 1996 to 2011, after which he and his family moved to Catalonia, Spain.

| As Covid-19 resulted in lockdowns, the North Shore Accordion Orchestras in Auckland, New Zealand were unable to rehearse for most of this year. So the conductors held a meeting and decided that for the last few weeks of 2020, they would run some fun jam sessions for all orchestra members (young and old) to come along and just have some "good old fun" playing together. The music ranged from light classical to rock & roll and all members sight read while the parents play percussion. On October 28th, the session included a variety of players including New Zealand past champions Kevin Friedrich, Maurice Jones and Campbell Bettridge, New Zealand Accordion Association (NZAA) Secretary Heather Masefield, Music Education Centre Director Lionel Reekie, NZAA Competitions Secretary Renee Jeffries, AWW Weekly News Editor Christine Johnstone, Lian Jones (member of the tango group Milonga De Cuatro), and Alanah Jones (accordion premiere with composer David Hamilton). The jam sessions also gave younger players the opportunity to play alongside more experienced accordionists, who were only too willing to help the junior players. Maurice Jones offered a few useful tips for handling this kind of gathering so that the players could get the most out of it. |

 Accordionist, conductor, arranger and brass player Brian Jenkins, from Manchester, passed away from Covid-19 in late October at the age of 86. Brian studied the accordion with Wilfred ‘Pip’ Walker and George Harris, passed all eight British College of Accordionists grades, and played in various bands. In the late 1940s he played accordion for the renowned Irish tenor Josef Locke, and later played in a Bavarian band that was resident in The Wilhelm Tell Bierkeller, Deansgate, Manchester. He also played the tenor horn in the British Aerospace Brass Band and received a long service award from the North West Brass Band Association in 2017, celebrating 70 years as a bandsman. In 1996 Brian became the Musical Director of the Stockport Accordion Orchestra, and soon afterwards also became closely involved with the Tameside Junior Accordion Band and the North West Accordion Orchestra, where he was very well-liked and held in high esteem. The Stockport Accordion Orchestra used many of Brian’s excellent arrangements, which were characterised by his brass band background. He also spent many happy years as a popular and respected MD of the weekend orchestras at the accordion festivals in Blackpool, Pakefield, Caister, Mundesley, and Seacroft. |
