EVERY NUMBER COUNTS ! Today = "sweet 16"
Songwriters of different categories of music have been inspired by the "sweet age" of 16. Worldwide, sixteen is seen as the age of "adulthood" - the age at which people become "full grown" members of society. Sam Cooke, Chuck Berry and ... Julie Andrews are just some of the "big names in music" who sang about being or becoming "sweet sixteen" ....
BERT KAEMPFERT
For all information and facts & figures about Bert Kaempfert, please go to our Blog Amore Musicorum (cfr home page, banner) where parts 1, 2 and 3 of a completely new series of articles can be found. Part 4 ("The Kaempfert African Sound") is scheduled to be posted soonest and another 20 episodes are "under preparation". Hence you can have the best of both worlds : listen to this fabulous song arranged by Bert here on the channel, while reading all about "Fips" (Bert's nickname) on the Blog (just open a new window if you intend to do so :-) !!
ABOUT THE SONG
This track was also used for an "Antwerp city" "special video entitled "ANTWERP CITY PANORAMA". And while here all images have been taken during the evening or the night, this other presentation features skyline pictures of the city of Antwerp taken in broad daylight.(our "home town so to speak" :-)
Wishing you lots of listening pleasure, while watching either this new presentation or the older one about the "Antwerp city skyline" !
