Video archive Education project

Video Archive and Education Project

The Scandalli Accordion Factory and Accordions Worldwide are the sponsors of the 2025 Video Archive and Education Project. This is a project initiated in 2010 by the Confédération Internationale des Accordéonistes (CIA) with assistance from sponsors.

Accordions Worldwide youtube channel

The project includes:
(i) A video of all the Coupe Mondiale categories and their contestants to be kept in the CIA archives in Finland, which over the coming years will become a wealth of historical recordings, including the premiere of many original accordion works and the emergence of upcoming artists at the Coupe Mondiale.
(ii) Free viewing of the videos of competitors in each Coupe Mondiale category. These will be online free viewing for the educational benefit of accordion teachers and students. The purpose is to enable the free spread of knowledge and information and thereby raise the levels of accordion performance and musicianship internationally.

We thank the Scandalli Accordion Factory and Accordions Worldwide for their sponsorship to enable this ambitious musical project to assist free of charge, accordion students and tutors throughout the world.
