Hello friends and fans! It has almost been a year since I last wrote a message here. I apologize to those that have left the mailing list due to my inactivity. But for those that are here waiting for a word and music from me, I give you some good news. I had an article written about me on an online national magazine for US accordion players to connect and spread news around the country. This is the link: http://www.accordionusa.com/#art2782. Below is the article in the Nov 1 issue. An Accordion in the Airport! by Rita Barnea https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V9MwNHqSXf8. This is the link to my video used in the article. Elizabeth WislerAccordionist Elizabeth Wisler entertains passengers from all parts of the globe each week at the Portland International Airport as part of the Port of Portland Musical Entertainment group. Since 2009, Elizabeth has been performing her "Music Around The World" repertoire for travelers from all parts of the globe. Every Saturday, she volunteers and plays her accordion in the secured area of Concourse D and the ABC Lobby. People stop to listen, chat, and learn about the accordion. Her repertoire includes"Music Around the World”with French, Italian, German, Spanish, Latin, Bossa Nova, Jazz Standards, 50's and 60's Rock and Roll, light Classical, and Ethnic. Elizabeth has been playing the accordion most of her life. She studied with Luigi Rangan for many years. For twenty years, she was an employee of the state of Oregon as an insurance claims adjustor. Her greatest joy, however, is playing the accordion for people. Elizabeth says, “Long live the accordion! Keep practicing and don’t ever give up!"

Sincerest regards and Happy Thanksgiving, Elizabeth Wisler
