Dancer Star is a piece by Marcel Azzola and Louis Peguri. At the end of one of these concerts with his pianist Lina Bossatti, a few years ago, I asked Marcel Azzola if he could send me a copy of this piece which was no longer edited. With the great kindness that characterized him he sent it to me. Thank you Marcel for all his nice notes. All accordionists will miss you.
It is possible to write to him via the comments of Youtube.

Hello,
The great Marcel Azzola left us, he accompanied the greatest Jacques Brel, Barbara or Edith Piaf.
Another big void.
Condolences to his family.
Come on Marcel, one last one.

Article published on this great man :On the accordion planet, everyone knows Dany Maurice. And Dany also knows everyone. A smiling, tireless little man. His age? It doesn't matter. For more than half a century, we have come across him wherever the instrument stretches its bellows. A multi-faceted artist, he has made a career as an entertainer with Charley Bazin, Marcel Azzola and Jacques Hélian. A party in his honorHe even had his own orchestra. And if he doesn't play the "piano à bretelles", he writes thousands of pages relating his career and his encounters in the course of already four books on the theme of the accordion.Dany was last Saturday in the city center where a small friendly party was given in his honor by six of his long-time Maximois friends: Jacques Bordechon, Michel Gobino, Maïté Sbero, Jean Senes, Michel and Roland Warembourg. Because if Dany has, in his youth, been a pepper grinder, a bricklayer, a window washer, he found himself on the stage thanks to his friends, his talent and his legendary good mood. Everyone remembers that "he is a jovial host, with a quick tongue and anecdote on the lips, noisemaker, presenter, comedian, mime ... and also a lover of pistou soup and lasagna. "For his part, the host, who stayed thirty-five years in the city of Preconil, recalls the key moments: " In 1936, I met "for the first time an accordionist, Maurice Alexander. I fell in love with this instrument. In 1947, I became an entertainer and, three years later, I became friends with Daniel Laget, "Monsieur Muscle", who ran the "Paris-Plage". In 1958, he was part of Jacques Hélian's training team for five years, during which he travelled the world. In 1960, at the request of Raymond Ventura, he returned to Barclay's and set up his own orchestra with some very good musicians. The adventure will last until 1970. Then, from 1971 to 1981, he accompanied the accordionist Marcel Azzola. Retirement? A word that he ignores. The proof. He travels the roads of France and Europe presenting accordion festivals, including that of Les Gêts in Haute-Savoie. Today, he manages his own publishing house and has just celebrated the 400th song, "Gentleman en roulette courte", with Pierre Roussat, composer, pianist and bass player in Paris and Ludovic Beïer, great jazzman.In addition, in partnership with Maurice B, a CD has just been released in homage to Claude Nougaro: "Nougalouse". The lyrics are by Monette Gautier and the music is by Christian Coupas and Dany Maurice.about a possible retirement, he exclaims: " Never! No, no, I don't want to stop. Adopted by a plethora of stars, Dany is faithful to his friends. Adopted by a host of stars, Dany is loyal to his friends, and he has just proved it once again by sharing with his fellow Maximians the memories of a time that those under twenty years of age have never known.

HELLO MUSICIAN FRIENDS
Tony Muréna has recorded a lot, especially in his last period when, like many others, he devoted himself to the interpretation of variety songs or fashionable tunes. It was necessary to forget everything that recalled the war and therefore also the music of that period; in short, the swing era was over. We have privileged here this golden age of swing musette: that is to say the years 1939-1947, plus some later titles where Muréna still has beautiful accents. If many of these songs have already been re-released on CD, they were most often scattered on various compilations, most of the time mixed with typical or commercial songs, without any indication of date or personnel, and in these times where one product drives out the other, most of these discs are not available anymore (1). Here is for the first time in 3 CDs, and in chronological order, almost all of Tony Muréna's best tracks, (with precise references and indication of personnel when identified), showing his immense talent. THE BEGINNINGS Born in Italy in 1916, Antonio Muréna did not know his father, who died on the field of honor (fallen on the Chemin des Dames). Like many Italians, he arrived in France with his mother, who remarried in 1923 to a fellow countryman, shortly after the First World War. They settled in Nogent-sur-Marne and then in Joinville. An uncle gave his first accordion to the young Tony, who showed a serious aptitude for music and studied with passion and persistence. The autodidact benefits from the advice of the great Médard Ferrero. At the age of twelve, he already performed at his first balls. Then, launched by his cousin Louis Ferrari (1910-1988), also an accordionist, he started in cabarets and guinguettes. He lost his mother and then his stepfather and found himself alone with his sister and three half-sisters. To make boil the pot he puts the double bites, puts himself in the bandoneon and quickly integrates the best orchestras of tango (Rafael Canaro, Eduardo Bianco...). We are in 1932, Muréna is only 16 years old ! His quintet is sufficiently famous to be part of the replacements of the holder of the Balajo. Having to go on tour, Muréna proposes to Jo Privat to replace him at the Balajo; the latter will remain there 50 years! Muréna plays at La Silhouette, La Boule noire, La Java, Le Pré Catelan, Ciro's... The guitarists Didi Duprat, Lucien Gallopin, one or the other of the Ferré, are then its accompanists. SWING MUSETTE It is in France that the first full-fledged jazz accordion develops. Roger Etlens is said to have been one of the first to play jazz on the accordion, followed by Louis Richardet and Charley Bazin. But these precursors did not record much and it is Viseur who will be the first great jazz accordionist, followed immediately by Muréna. In the absence of the American models, who left for the United States after the declaration of war, the pioneers of the French swing accordion developed a style mixing American jazz, French musette and gypsy swing. Viseur, Muréna, and then Jo Privat, renovated the musette genre in depth by eliminating the accordion's vibrating register, introducing more sophisticated harmonies, and embarking on the adventure of what is called im-provisation. According to Mrs. Muréna's testimony (2), whenever they had a moment, Gus (Viseur) and Tony (Muréna) would play together just for them. We have a glimpse of what this could give, with about ten titles recorded around 1948 by the two companions (Matelo Ferret would be on guitar and the double bass player is not identified). These recordings, not very well known, were released under the name of Accordion's Club (cf. here "?Home Trainer?", the magnificent version of "?Body and Soul?", the super acceleration of tempo on "?On The Sunny Side of The Street?" which swings to death, and "?After You've Gone?) They will also play with the whole team of the Hot Club de France, where Muréna joins in 1941, and meet in boeufs, after the concerts, and more regularly thereafter at the Mirliton, a dance hall that Muréna buys in 1949 on the side of the place Clichy, and where all the accordionists come, at least those who like the beautiful chords. Still according to Mrs Muréna, Django and Tony liked to play together... What a pity that no sound trace has reached us! "... We were in Les Sables d'Olonne when Tony learned that Django had died. Tony collapsed. That's the only time I saw my husband cry..." (3) MURÉNA, VEDETTE DES DISQUES ODÉON In 1939, shortly before the declaration of war, Tony met Emile Prud'homme (who was to become his brother-in-law), who had just recorded for the prestigious Odéon record label. He introduced Tony to the artistic director of the label, Edouard Dory, who was truly enthusiastic about his sparkling playing. On May 11, 1939, two swings are recorded, "?Madam's?" co-composed by Muréna with P. Fontaine and "?all is not lost?", a light swing by Louis Richardet. Jacques Petitsigne is on double bass, Matelo and Sarane on guitars, the latter illustrating himself by two remarkably constructed choruses and of course Tony on accordion, who combines in his phrasing beautiful and elegant. From the beginning of the 1940s, Muréna gave a new dimension to the accordion, surrounding himself with the best jazz musicians of the time: the drummers Georges Marion, Jacques Irsa, Roger Paraboschi, Pierre Fouad, the double bassists Jean Merlin, Jacques Petitsigne, René Larguier or Pascal Groffe, the clarinettists Pierre Gossez, Francis Camus, Lucas, Pierre Delhoumeau or Hubert Rostaing, the pianists Michel Ramos or Boris Sarbek, the guitarists Didi Duprat, René Duchaussoir, Lucien Gallopin... Between 1939 and 1943, Muréna drew largely from the gypsy source and more exactly from the gypsy source, by joining, just like Viseur (and a little later Privat) the talents of the Ferret brothers: Baro, Matelo and Sarane. In 1941, Tony becomes the star of the Odeon records and puts 22 titles in the can that year; the accordionist has perhaps never played so brilliantly. If his style is less fiery, less flamboyant than Viseur's, his touch is more sentimental and airy (cf. "?Le paradis perdu?", a magnificent ballad where Muréna combines finesse and feeling, this beautiful version of "?Yeux noirs?" with a long guitar chorus probably by Sarane, or these nervous swings like "?Le jitterbug?", "?Playmates?", "?Express 113?"or "China Town", an "American" jazz theme that the needs of the French production will rename "Chinatown", the opportunity for Muréna to launch some beautiful rockets), these last titles almost all interpreted with a septet with a very Goodmanian spirit: piano, drums and clarinet (excellent chorus of Pierre Delhoumeau). The accordionist treats the instrument like a real orchestra, taking advantage of all its resources: finesse of play, phrasing of a rare elegance, sense of exposition of a theme, constant inspiration. Stylist as there are few, he is never in the clichés: originality, spirit of creation and freshness are at the appointment. For Marcel Azzola, "?when Tony plays, we forget that it is the accordion, he is an authentic genius? Muréna is also the author of some fabulous compositions such as "Swing promenade", "Pacific" (a kind of blues that starts a bit like Django Reinhardt's "Rythm Futur", with an acceleration of the tempo illuminated by a sparkling guitar chorus, probably due to Baro Ferret, and rockets sent by Tony), "Ciro's", on which his suppleness and relaxed phrasing are marvellous, "Milk Bar", one of his most famous swings."one of his most accomplished swings or "?Pré catelan?", a swing recorded on May 30, 1942, a day when grace was undoubtedly upon him, since he also recorded "?Indifference? and "?Passion?", two masterpieces of great melodic beauty, co-composed with Joseph Colombo, charged with sensitivity and emotion, illuminated by Baro's chorus and which have not ceased to be played and replayed since. Muréna is thus, with Viseur and Privat, the singer of the waltz in minor which, imbued with a certain spleen, imposes itself as the masterpiece of jazz musette. MYSTERY AND GUMDROP !
