Welcome to the March 2019 USA News which contains important information including videos about upcoming accordion festivals, competitions, artists, and concerts.

The start of the new year is often a time to review our services and plans for an exciting year ahead for AWW publications. For that reason we thought it worthwhile to draw our readers attention to the About Accordions Worldwide page which is essentially our philosophy to positively promote the accordion.

Some key excerpts are:
1. Purpose of AWW:
All subject matter shall be suitable for children. AWW websites are for accordion matters ONLY and all political, racial, sexual and religious discussion, material or publication is strictly forbidden.

To provide a readily accessible information service about all aspects of the accordion, for accordionists, enthusiasts, accordion businesses and organizations. 

To encourage the general dissemination of accordion information and maintain a high level of service to accordionists.

2. Aim:
To benefit accordionists and accordion enthusiasts by effectively utilizing the advantages of modern technology. We aim to assist the future growth and popularity of the accordion worldwide.

3. ”Accordion” Terminology:
The term “accordion” is used throughout this site as a generic term that applies to ALL free-reed bellows instruments. We want to support and promote the merits of them all.

4. General Editorial Policy:
AWW reserves the right to omit any information provided for any reason.

5. ”Power of the Positive for Promotion”. AWW publishes “positive” news for the general benefit of the accordion in accordance with the AWW “Aim”.

For full information please view the About Accordions Worldwide page.

March is the time to prepare for summer vacations which include accordion events. In this issue and future publications, you will read about fun, exciting, and important accordion festivals to either attend or participate in, perhaps both!
