Roumanian Ciocarlia `Flight of the Lark' (Gypsy style) ▪ Nick Ariondo, accordion-composer

Nick CD www.amazon.com...
KZbin channel / nickariondo1
Nick Ariondo's version 'Roumanian Ciocarlia (Flight of the Lark)' is a unique blend of romanian, gypsy-style, ciocarlia and compositional interplay ~ a special tribute to the music of Romania, the gypsies and their worldly contributions. Composers Georges Enescu • George Enescu - Ciocarlia , Franz Liszt, Johannes Brahms, Pablo Sarasate and others utilized folk/gypsy music in their compositions..... At an early age Ariondo had the opportunity to perform with gypsy musicians, singers & dancers, listening to recordings & performing with internationally known violinists Rima Rudina, Shony Alex Braun, Sooren (Suren) Alexander, among others, including Romany/linguistics colleague Peter Landerman. . . . . In this specialized version showcasing the accordion's versatility, Nick depicts the 'songbird-flight of the lark' by utilizing a variety of techniques: from dramatic shaking of the bellows in the opening section to right-hand glissandi swiftly gliding across the keyboard at nano-second speed, to emulating the lark's movements with fluttered trills and left-right hand tremolo effects as played on string and woodwind instruments ~~ a complete orchestra with melodies, harmonies, bass lines & rhythmic accompaniement. All of the above is part of Nick's presentation as composer/performer in sharing his vision of the accordion as an instrument of unlimited possibilities. The solo performance on this video featured Nick Ariondo in concert with violinist/historian Miamon Miller and his ensemble, the 'Garlic Band'.

[@accordionist42]

Amazing !!! I have never seen an accordionist performing in such a style !!! Total command over the whole instrument.. in all departments of the instrument... Extremely difficult... But for this maestro of accordion it seems so easy !!! years of hard work. !!! May God bless you , Sir...

[@octavianpetru1325]

"Years of hard work"... It's true, and I'm glad somebody know that. Yes, is AMAZING!

[@АзатШакенов-х2д]

Decades*

[@adamcolbertmusic]

Not just years of working "hard" at it but also working "smart"! Excellent results begin with excellent practice habits, not just grinding away at it but moreover intentionally crafting the skills! He's one with his instrument; his accordion is an extension of his body rather than an addition! When he moves the bellows it's as if it's himself breathing and when he plays the keys it's as if it's himself singing through it!

[@accordionist42]

@@adamcolbertmusic Yesss !!! I fully agree with you, sir. !!!👍🌹🌹

[@aykeagus3248]

To my dear musical partner Nick, you are such a master of your instrument. I have missed making music with you. This piece, is really your master piece. Nuance, sense of incredible unshakable rhythm, are just a few of your incredible artistry. God bless you and Lorna, sent with love
