From a Italy friend (Musician) PAS' email |

I have received an email sent by Italian friend PAS
on January 23, 2017. He wrote:"“I wanna suggest this live
version at EBS TV KOREA of Pasquale Stafano on piano and Gianni Iorio
on bandoneon of Ennio Morricone's compositions. Please check it out

In order to facilitate the sharing of domestic fans, I have uploaded this video to Youku website (06'33 ") |

In this video, the accordion caught my attention, because I liked to play the accordion from a young age, so I was interested in it. I think it is a bit like the Bayan that is popular in Russia, but not too like. Because its main keyboard is vertical |

I see that notes below that vodeo: "Pasquale Stafano piano; Gianni Iorio bandoneon". I go to search the "bandoneon", there is an explanantion in the WIKI: "The bandoneon (or bandonion, Spanish: bandoneón) is a type of concertina particularly popular in Argentina, Uruguay, and Lithuania. It is an essential instrument in most tango ensembles from the traditional orquesta típica of the 1910s onwards, and in folk music ensembles of Lithuania." |

I suddenly think of a web page's scene in the 1972 film "Il
maestro e margherita" edited by me: The master denounced the bureaucrats of the writers' association In a party at a club, he was rejected, and then left the club bitterly. A Russian folk song played by an accordion appeared at this time. That accordion player performs very well. (The video is in 006-00:48:30-00:51:36 in that web page or this video web site) |

But I'm a little confused, because it's very long when it is pull opened. I find this video, and re-observe carefully. I finally figured it out: It do is bandoneon and not Bayan! |

In the video provided by friend PAS, this bandoneon's tone is very beautiful. When it is accompaniment for the piano, that kind of background sound like organ is very mellow; when it is a lead role, its sound is constantly changing, sometimes like a flute, sometimes like a black tube, sometimes like a trumpet, an instrument to play a lot of roles, making the two-person band become very rich and colorful, fascinating. The piano is very accurate and appropriate, sometimes it is very gentle, sometimes sonorous and forceful. It is very perfect match between the two. |

This suite music from two of the most famous, and is also the most familiar to ordinary people film "Once upon a time in America" and "Nuovo Cinema Paradiso" what composed by Ennio Morricone. Its theme is to call to the audience for the memories of their childhood. Although the plot of the 2 films is very different, but they are closely linked to the main line of human, especially in middle-age and old people's inherent nostalgia. Modernist are the inherent homeless people. "Go Back Home" is the deepest demand of the modernist as the nostalgia to his death. The works of Morricone take this emotion into an immortal melody, two luthiers play the literal symbol and deduction into a shock wave one and another one, to touch people's visual and auditory nerve, causing endless memories and resonance. Just look at the faces and unconscious movements of the audience under the stage, you can know the show was a great success. |

According to the links in the web site, I go to see the two performers, Stafano and Lorio's personal homepage, can see that they have a long-term cooperation and released a lot of works |

It can be seen that this is a very young, active musician. As Ennio Morricone who at the age of thirty or forty began to enter the peak of his caree, this 45 year old musician is sure to burst out even more bright In his future life. We wish him to create and produce more and better works, and also hope him that In the process of interpreting Morricone's works, more to show his musical talent! |
