| The Café Accordion Orchestra perform in concert twice on Friday August 1st - from 5.30pm to 7.30pm, and again from 9.45pm to 11.45pm – at the Orchestra Hall, Peavey Plaza, 1111 Nicollet Mall, Minneapolis, Minnesota The Café Accordion Orchestra, featuring accordionist Dan Newton, perform an eclectic mix of vintage Swing, Latin, American, and French Café Music. Their music evokes the repertoire of the Bal Musette orchestras, the bands that were popular in Parisian cafés and bistros in the 1920s through 1950s. The heart of this repertoire is the romantic, gypsy-influenced valse-musette or swing waltz. CAO complements the musettes with swing, ballads, tangos, paso dobles, boleros, rumbas, and cumbias to create a wonderfully varied show. While they inject their music with good humor and expressive abandon, their high level of musicianship and passion for performance makes them an entertaining concert act as well as a great dance band. On July 15th the CAC released a new CD ‘Germaine’, their seventh recording. For further information email: daddysqueeze@yahoo.com |
