To all our accordionists and accordion enthusiasts:

The May www.accordionusa.com news is now online. Remember Internet Streaming on May 6 World Accordion Day (WADConfédération Internationale des Accordéonistes (CIA) Show.

We at AWW hope that you and your family are well during this world crisis. It is most unfortunate that the spread of Covid-19 has led to the postponement or cancellation of many international and national accordion events.

We ask organizers/musicians to please keep us informed so we can keep our readers informed. In the May news, you will learn about many online events, both past, present and future. There are links for you to gain easy access. Please remember that most professional musicians are dependent on their live concerts and tours for their livelihood. If possible, you might consider sending them a donation to reward them for their great efforts in maintaining live online events.

We are hopeful that In June we will be able to publicize more live concerts. In the meantime, while home, consider using the time to practice, take Skype or FaceTime lessons, and practice your accordion. Hoping you and your family are safe and healthy.
