WCC Hall of Fame

World Concertina Congress - WCC

The World Concertina Congress Hall of Fame is not a physical place, but a shared tribute—a heartfelt way for concertina musicians to honor their peers. It celebrates international, national, and regional Chemnitzer concertina players, many of whom embody the spirit of everyday musicians who keep this cherished tradition alive.

Most Hall of Fame members are devoted local players whose passion and dedication have sustained the concertina at its grassroots level. Unlike many other halls of fame, the World Concertina Congress proudly recognizes not only renowned performers and enthusiasts, but also the humble, down-to-earth musicians whose contributions are vital to the preservation of concertina music.

We welcome everyone to take part in celebrating the legacy of concertina music by submitting a Portable Document Format Hall of Fame Nomination Form for consideration. Instructions and requirements for making a nomination are included on the form.

A committee, appointed by the officers of the World Concertina Congress, carefully reviews all nominations and selects those individuals whose dedication and contributions have had a lasting impact on the concertina community. Deceased honorees are respectfully designated with the suffix (d).

Induction into the Hall of Fame is the organization’s highest honor—bestowed in recognition of extraordinary, selfless efforts to uplift, promote, and preserve the concertina and the music it brings to life.
