about
(translation from the Belgian wiki http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Didier_Laloy) Didier Laloy(11 June 1974 in Etterbeek , in the region of Brussels-Capital) discovered the accordion at the age of 13 years during a street party organized by his mother, Mireille. Immediately, Didier fell in love with the instrument and soon began to participate in numerous workshops, which included Borzée with Bruno Le Tron, Marc Perrone, and Jean-Pierre Yvert. From his first steps, his teachers were impressed by the talent and innovative style of the young beginner, who also played everything by ear. They expressed their enthusiasm to his parents. Even before his 18th birthday, he performed his first concerts, and the accordion became his trade. Today, Didier has left Brussels (and particularly the European neighborhood where he grew up), and moved, along with his wife and three children, to a small village of Namur. For many years Didier has been considered one of the most active representatives of the accordion revival in Europe.
