for John Kirkpatrick

John Kirkpatrick presents

 TWO HUNDRED YEARS OF THE SQUEEZEBOX

 John Kirkpatrick romps through two hundred years of popular tunes to showcase the range and versatility of these cheerful little instruments, with a programme that reaches way beyond his usual folk roots. You’ll hear themes from the classics, light music, well-loved songs, nostalgic signature tunes, dance music of all kinds, and the occasional lugubrious hymn by way of contrast. With a life-time’s experience of running up and down the push-pull scale of the Anglo Concertina, the Melodeon, and the Button Accordion, John keeps it bright and breezy in a selection that highlights the hits of the day, from the 1820s, when squeezeboxes first appeared, right up to the present day.
