‘14 Years Ago’: 1999: end of the 20th Century Concertby Rob Howard |
The Accordions Worldwide news for the week ending December 24th 1999 was the final news of the 20th Century. Included was an article from Germany about a concert in Germany featuring well known music composed in each decade of the century, all performed by the accordion orchestra Akkordeonclub Hirschau e.V. Great tunes, one and all, and a timely reminder that the last century produced a lot of wonderful melodies and composers. Music from the 20th Century – Germany Contributed by Constanze Krause The Akkordeonclub Hirschau e.V. performed a variety of 20th century music in Tübingen on December 11th. Their program was "a time trip through this century" beginning with a piece from the movie "Star trek", followed by music from every decade such as 1910 (The Entertainer), 1920 (Charlston), 1930 (American Patrol), 1950 (Perfidia), 1960 (The Twist) and 1970 (songs from Bert Kämpfert, Spanish eyes, Swinging Safari and California Dreaming). Their finale was a 1980 Disco-Medley with "YMCA", "D-I-S-C-O" and "I will survive". |
