'Accordions International' 2005, Caister - UK Contributed by Heather Smith Organised by Heather Smith, Editor of the 'Accordion Profile' magazine, this festival took place from 10th to 14th November. Over 400 accordion enthusiasts booked into the event. Many more also attended, who had bought day/evening passes. Workshops and Masterclasses took place throughout each day in three venues and every evening a Dance and Cabaret was presented in the Carousel Club. International guest performers included Giancarlo Caporilli (Italy), Murl Allen Sanders (USA) and Oivind Farmen (Norway), who between them played such a wide range of musical styles that there was indeed 'something for everyone'. UK performers included: Norvic Concordia, Charlie Watkins, Gary Blair, Stockport Accordion Orchestra, Crawley accordion Orchestra, Bert Santilly and Johnny Coleclough. Dance music was provided by Gary Blair (Scottish) and Adrienne Sharpe and Peter Whiteley (Ballroom). Performers on the first evening were Charlie Watkins (WEM) and Murl Allen Sanders (his UK debut performance) whose unique style of playing and singing completely captivated the audience. The Friday evening was taken over with a superb 'Party Night', which was sponsored by the Crawley Accordion Orchestra. Accordeon Club des Flandres de Lambersart were invited to the event by Crawley AO and both orchestras played during the evening, as did Peter Ayers and Margaret Ledger (from Norvic Concordia) and Giancarlo Caporilli (who also performed on Sunday evening). Halfway through the evening, Gary Blair played for Scottish dancing and immediately the dance floor was packed with hoards of excited dancers, including many of the French guests. At the end of the evening several accordionists had a mass busk, and were joined by Harry Hussey (UK) and Giancarlo Caporilli. It was indeed a 'fun-packed' night to remember!! The Stockport Accordion Orchestra, under the baton of MD Brian Jenkins, gave a performance on the Saturday evening. Oivind Farmen's repertoire, which ranged from classical to 'lighter' music by Frosini and Tollefsen, was played with great sensitivity and incredible virtuosity, and Murl Allen Sanders again wowed the audience with a very entertaining performance. A surprise of the evening was a superb set of music for dancing played by eight members from the French orchestra, resulting in a fabulous time for the dancers who packed the floor. 'Songs of Praise' took place on the Sunday evening before the concert began, featuring Norvic Concordia, a sextet who play pure acoustic accordions (no mikes etc), all the music arranged by their leader Peter Ayers. Giancarlo Caporilli, the incredible accordionist from Rome whose vast repertoire from memory amazes everyone, playing as always with such feeling and incredible ease, his instrument appears to be a natural part of himself and even the most intricate composition looks like a five-finger exercise. Following Caporilli were short performances from Oivind Farmen, Gary Blair and Murl Allen Sanders, which led into the Grand delight of the audience they played together 'Bel Viso', 'Spanish Eyes' and 'Auld Lang Syne', with everyone present joining hands and singing. The daily workshops were very well attended, with over 50 players taking part in each of the Elementary (MD Peter Whiteley) and Intermediate (MD Brian Jenkins) Orchestral workshops. Other well attended workshops included: Scottish (Gary Blair), Jazz (Bert Santilly), Vintage Accordions (Heather Smith), Buskers (Johnny Coleclough) and Free & Easy (Adrienne Sharpe). Masterclasses were conducted by Murl Allen Sanders (USA), Oivind Farmen (Norway), Trevani and Geoff Holter presented a very interesting question and answer workshop on 'How to Look After Your Accordion'. The trade show included: WEM, Trevani, Geoff Holter Accordions and The Accordion Shop. There was a superb 'Antique Accordion Display' by Caroline Hunt, who travelled many hundreds of miles from the Highlands of Scotland to present some rare instruments from her vast collection. The festival also had nostalgic memories for many who attended because this was the venue chosen by the late Malcolm Gee, who for many years organised a very successful annual event there and Heather Smith, who had previously organised four successful annual events (2001/4) at Pakefield, Suffolk, and had attended many of Malcolm Gee's festivals herself, felt Caister was the rightful 'home' for UK Accordion festivals. This 'new' Caister accordion festival was a huge success and Heather hopes to present another in 2006.
