Happy Easter to all our readers around the world - Worldwide

by Diatonic News
Diatonic News is wishing all their readers a peaceful easter and pleasant time, always surround by music.

Also this year our easter wishes come accompanied by the Ukrainian handpainted and tradtional Easter egg image, known as a pysanka egg. Characterized by their unique and intricate designs, these have become popular worldwide. While today they are widely admired for aesthetic reasons, historically they were thought to be very powerful.

According to the Ukrainian Museum, in ancient times, women and young girls would design pysanka eggs each spring.
Using natural dyes wotj Geometric motifs as well as animal and plant elements were all common designs seen on pysanka eggs. Each color used in the design had a different symbolic meaning: red symbolized the sun, life, and joy; yellow represented wealth and fertility; green was a symbol of spring and plant life.

World Accordion Day - some events/concerts in program? - International

by Diatonic News
World Accordion Day header
World Accordion Day logoWhat are you doing for World Accordion Day to promote the accordion in your country? World Accordion day is on May 6th, which is the day the accordion was patented in 1829.

World Accordion Day was started in 2009 by the CIA and has been very successful, generating a lot of 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 WAD website and send a report of their event after, for that website.

No event is too big or too small. ALL accordion events celebrating World Accordion Day are welcome. This is a CIA 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.

16. Harmonica Masters Workshops - Deutschland
Mittwoch, 30. Oktober - Sonntag, 3. November 2024

Die 16. Harmonica Masters Workshops finden von Mittwoch, den 30. Oktober, bis Sonntag, den 3. November 2024 wieder zum ursprünglichen Termin in den Herbstferien statt.

n Workshop zur traditionellen Blues-Mundharmonika mit dem legendären Joe Filisko, der seine einzigartige Analyse klassischer Blues-Stile und Stilisten weitergeben wird, der großartige Bluesman, Sänger, Harpspieler und Lehrer Bonny B. (Kambodscha/Schweiz) sind wieder dabei, um den Kurs über Blues- und Gospel-Mundharmonika & Gesang zu präsentieren. Bonnys erster Workshop im Jahr 2023 war eine geniales Erlebnis, das im Laufe der Veranstaltung eine wachsende Zahl von Teilnehmern aus anderen Kursen anzog. Sein Kurs 2024 ist für Spieler aller Spielstufen sehr zu empfehlen! Hocherfreut ist man über die Rückkehr von Marko Jovanovic, Deutschlands führender Harmonikalehrer und Organisator des FEN Harmonica Festivals in Berlin, der seinen beliebten Workshop Pure Harmonica Training unterrichten wird. Nach dem Erfolg seines ersten Kurses im Jahr 2023 ist aucvh Chris Kramer wieder eingeladen, das Wochenend-Workshop für Anfänger am Freitag und Samstag im Jahr 2024 zu leiten.

Zum ersten Mal unterrichtet Long Ti Tian aus China,der am Hohner-Konservatorium chromatische Mundharmonika studierte, bevor er an der Jazz- und Rockschule in Freiburg seinen BA in Performance Studies absolvierte. Er tritt derzeit mit der Gruppe vom renommierten brasilianischen Jazz-Gitarristen Fabio Gouvea auf, und wird bei der HMW 2024 einen leicht zugänglichen und gut konzipierten Kurs für Jazz-Chromonika unterrichten. Und last but not least hat man auf Wunsch vieler Studenten, für einen Workshop zum Thema Rack Harp für Gitarristen den renommierten britischen Blueskünstler Eddie Martin gewinnen können. Eddie ist ein wahrer Meister auf beiden Instrumenten und ein großartiger Pädagoge, der sowohl seine Leidenschaft für die Musik wie auch die zum Spielen erforderlichen Fähigkeiten vermitteln kann.

Weiters gibt es Sonderworkshops während den Mittagspausen am Donnerstag, Freitag und Samstag: Mattias Bogefors wird eine praktische Einleitung in seine Methode geben, die Mundharmonika therapeutisch einzusetzen; George Reijnders und Arie-Jan Folkerts (Marble Amps) werden wieder ihren Workshop zum Thema elektrisch verstärkte Harp präsentieren; und Chris Kramer stellt eine tolle neue Stimmung vor, um ganz einfach und intuitiv in Molltonarten spielen zu können.

Anmeldungen für die 16. Harmonica Masters Workshops möglich.

La BandAdriatica si prepara ad una nuova estate - Italia

by Diatonic News
BandAdriatica
La BandAdriatica si prepara ad una nuova estate in giro per l'Europa e ad un nuovo album

Sarà una nuova estate sui palchi d'Europa per la Bandadriatica: da Giugno si parte per il nuovo tour estivo della “band che unisce i popoli”, come l'ha definita il Corriere della Sera. Intanto è già in cantiere il nuovo album della band pugliese, il sesto dal 2007.

Sarà un nuovo lavoro discografico ricco di novità e nuove influenze, nel perfetto stile della band che da sempre si rinnova e si arricchisce, ampliando ad ogni album il bacino della sua ricerca musicale, pur conservando un linguaggio personale e definito, che la rende inconfondibile nel panorama della world music.

Trasportata dai venti vorticosi del Mediterraneo, la BandAdriatica arriva dalla Puglia con una proposta originale che mescola i suoni dei vari paesi che si affacciano sul Mar Mediterraneo: la tradizione della 'banda' italiana - che anima le parti, le processioni e i funerali con il suo profondo suono ancestrale - il virtuosismo e l'energia della musica dei Balcani e le influenze e le suggestioni del Nord Africa. Sopra tutto questo la libertà e la potenza del jazz. Una fantastica 'Odissea' - proprio come il titolo dell'ultimo album, realizzata da otto musicisti con una straordinaria sezione fiati e una raffinata proposta musicale completata da una forte presenza scenica arricchita da coinvolgenti movimenti coreografici.

Un risultato potente, frutto di quasi vent'anni di ricerca sulle matrici musicali comuni delle sponde del Mare Adriatico, confrontandosi con le musiche di Albania, Macedonia, Croazia, con le fanfare Serbe e il Nord Africa e spingendosi fino al Mediterraneo più orientale.
Una miscela sensazionale che sprigiona un’energia contagiosa, in cui le diverse lingue si fondono in un'esplosione, in grado di coinvolgere ogni volta il pubblico in una grande festa.

Costa Festival Ibiza - Spain

by Diatonic News
Costa Festival Ibiza - Spain
What is a Costa Music Festival?
Imagine a music festival in the sunshine and located at a 4- or 5-star hotel in the Mediterranean. Harmony Voyages specialises in offering music themed festival holidays with all the fun of a regular festival but none of the drawbacks. No queueing, no muddy fields, no portaloos, flip-flops instead of wellingtons and a warm comfortable bedroom with en-suite bathroom to retire to at the end of the day!

At a Costa Festival you can enjoy listening to some amazing live music whilst sunbathing by the pool, meet and play with some of the artists at the late night sessions, take part in a ukulele, music, or watercolour art workshop, join in at the ceilidhs, perform at the open mic or on the busking stage, join the Costa choir, enjoy one of the daily Pilates or Tai Chi classes or even spend time discovering the local area on one of our sightseeing excursions or bird watching trips. There is something for everyone at a Costa Festival.

Not all our festivals are located overseas. Costa Winter Festival is a UK based event and whilst the weather may not compare to the Mediteranean or the Algarve, every other bit of the festival it touched by the same Costa magic as our overseas festivals.

A huge line-up to make your holiday stay an extra-ordinary happening together with stars from the international music world.

View the website for more information upon the music-groups (header) and other relative information about the trip and place!

Das vom international renommierten Trompeten-Virtuosen und Stil-Tausendsassa Thomas Gansch initiierte Bandprojekt Alpen & Glühen versteht sich als Supergroup herausragender Musiker:innen, die sich bei diesem Projekt zusammengefunden haben, um ihre verschiedenen musikalischen Wurzeln Sozialisierungen zu einem ästhetisch vielgestaltigen Klangkörper zu bündeln. Dabei treffen volksmusikalische Traditionen auf Jazz, filigranes Musizieren auf mitreißende Improvisationen, ein Boarischer mit viel humoristischem Groove auf einen ins österreichische übersetzten indischen Raga. Was zunächst nach wildem Stilpluralismus klingen mag, verwebt sich auf der Bühne zu besonderen Klangwelten, die melancholisch, ekstatisch und humorvoll in einem sind.

Mit dem grammynominierten Musiker Manu Delago, dem Frontmann der Jazz-Senkrechtstarter Shake Stew Lukas Kranzelbinder und dem kreativen Einfallsreichtum des radio.string.quartet hat das Projekt in den letzten beiden Jahren restlos ausverkaufte und frenetisch bejubelte Tourneen durch Österreich, Deutschland und Italien gespielt, sein Debütkonzert im Großen Saal der ehrwürdigen Elbphilharmonie in Hamburg bestritten und eine Topplatzierung in den österreichischen Albumcharts für das Debütalbum erreicht. Nun ist mit dem Steirischem Harmonika -Virtuosen Christian Bakanic ein weiteres Bandmitglied dazugestoßen, das die Klangwelten des Projekts um neue und klanggewaltige Facetten bereichert.

LA BILLEBAUDE (MONTANARO/GEOFFROY
SATURDAY, APRIL 27/2024
4:00 p.m.Ensemble Music Workshop with Geoffroy/Montanaro
24:00 Concert/Dance LA BILLEBAUDE (MONTANARO/GEOFFROY)

Laurent and Baltazar have been playing since 2002 with the group Zef, with which they have toured Europe performing contemporary compositions based on traditional French dance forms.

At the same time, they wanted to create a repertoire of traditional melodies from the places that have marked their lives and where they have lived.

The music of Hungary succeeds the songs of Brittany, the music of Morvan mixes with that of Provence or Gascony, Portugal or Estonia.

Conceived for dance, this repertoire nevertheless has a lot of character, because the finesse of the ornamentation, in the manner of ancient music, is what makes these arias so interesting, and gives those who know how to listen to it a richness that is both free and firmly rooted.

A chiudere lo spettacolo l’esecuzione in anteprima nazionale del doppio concerto per bandoneon, chitarra, pianoforte e orchestra scritto dal compositore argentino Martín Palmeri che per l’occasione si esibirà al pianoforte unendosi ai solisti ed all’orchestra.

Bargainatt in April 2024 - ES/FR

by Diatonic News
Bargainatt
From the friendship between four young musicians, Bargainatt was born, a dance music group that was formed in early 2016 in Montpellier.

The quartet begins by borrowing compositions from their illustrious predecessors (Shillelagh, Naragonia, Ballsy Swing...) and covers traditional melodies, taking time to compose their own pieces, giving free rein to their creativity, always with the desire to create rhythmic music for dance.

At first, the repertoire consisted solely of instrumental music, but gradually singing made its appearance in the Bargainatt dance.

Today, the songs written and performed by Youmi enrich the group's musical universe.

From Auvergne to Brittany, passing through Poitou and Gascogne, Bargainatt takes you on a journey of many colors and influences, full of energy and freshness.

"LES BRUMES DE L'AUBE"
Création avril 2024
En résidence à Lyon en mars, Illa débutera sa première tournée en avril 2024.
Un album, également en cours de préparation, paraîtra à cette occasion.

Illa évoque la brume de l’aube en Inde, elle en latin, île en provençal, une chose mauvaise en suédois, cette pierre sculptée attire aussi les bonnes grâces des entités spirituelles chez les Quechuas. 

Polysémie à l’image de la musique de ce nouveau combo puissant et enlevé, et qui ne s’excuse pas d’être fin et délicat.

Quatre créateurs sonores au service de la musique à danser : destination le bal folk sur les chemins de traverse de l’Europe occidentale, du nord au sud (centre France, Suède, Poitou, sud ouest, Bretagne…). 

Quatre compositeurs qui passent en un clin d'œil d’un univers très orchestral à une interprétation brute et minimaliste.

Des appuis sûrs pour élancer les corps enveloppés par le cocon confortable d’un accordéon rond au doigté inimitable, une rythmique acérée cistre-chien qui met en exergue les envolées poétiques des cordes chaudes et délicates. Le violon se faufile en jeune caméléon agile et malicieux. Les vocaux invitent au voyage, portés par une vielle abyssale nébuleusement précise.

Bref, Illa c’est du bal folk énergique, pop et sensuel.
