Connecticut accordionist Emilio Magnotta will open his new business location on Hope Street in Stamford, Connecticut on November 1, 2012. He offers an accordion sales and repairs service, electronics and accessories for the accordion, several brands of new accordions, original sheet music and used accordions.

Emilio began accordion lessons at age five when a friend of his mother’s gave him an authentic Italian accordion to play with. He asked his mother for lessons and she found an excellent teacher for him, Cliff Scholl, who had been a student of Pietro Frosini.

Cliff Scholl was an arranger and teacher, very active in the AAA, who also made live recordings of some of the most famous USA accordionists from the early 1940‘s on, such as Frosini and Magnante.

Emilio took lessons from Cliff Scholl for eighteen years.

Presently, Emilio performs every weekend for all types of events ranging from outdoor Italian feasts to weddings. He also recorded a CD, “Emilio Magnotta, Vol.II”.
