	A very Happy New Year to all our subscribers! This is a time of new year for making resolutions and we hope that yours will all be music-related ones. If you're seeking inspiration then do look no further than Milos Milivojevic's wonderful new CD - Accord For Life which is highly recommended. First off, on January 24th, the Royal Academy of Music's accordion department is holding a master class with Alfred Melichar, professor of accordion at the Anton Bruckner Conservatoire in Linz. It is completely free so whether your'e student, teacher or just interested do come along and watch him work with the accordion students of the RAM. March 10th sees a lunchtime TANGO concert at the famous PIzza Express Jazz Club in Soho by the Romano Viazzani Ensemble who will be giving us a sneaky preview of some of their new compositions to be featured on their future album LONDON TANGO along with some Piazzolla and some traditional tango too. Don't forget Eastbourne Accordion Weekend in February. A bit further ahead in May we will witness a truly momentous occasion with the premiere of a new accordion concerto by leading British composer Jonathan Dove and played by Owen Murray and the Scottish chamber orchestra in EDINBURGH, GLASGOW and ABERDEEN. We hope our Scottish subscribers and those near the border will make it along to support this important event for the accordion in the UK. If you live further south or abroad even and haven't visited Scotland in the spring then May would be a good time to do so. It may only be a couple of degrees warmer than Winter time but you'll have three opportunities to hear a stunning new accordion concerto to raise the temperature and the wonderful sights those three beautiful cities offer! Do please take a look at Douglas Ward's newly reworked website Reedwax too for lots of accordion goodies. More info below. Remember to try to support as best you can any accordion events near you as these encourage venues to book such artists. See you in February!

A first solo accordion CD from Miloš Milivojević! Accord for life

A first solo accordion CD from Miloš Milivojević! ZZ Music is so pleased to present this outstanding new album by one of the world’s top accordionists. Miloš Milivojević was part of Owen Murray’s golden generation of accordion students at the Royal Academy of Music in the early 21st century when he studied there after arriving from that other hotbed of accordion talent, Serbia, and has since been very active both in his adopted home city of London and all over the world. The album is well worth the wait.
