Dear MK-User,
The following four titles can be found in the MK427:

1561. Have a good flight! "Robbi, Tobbi and the Fliewatüüt" is a television film by Armin Maiwald from 1972. Based on the children's book of the same name, WDR produced an elaborate television film in four parts, which was first broadcast on Erste on September 3, 1972. The soundtrack of the series was written by Ingfried Hoffmann, Armin Maiwald knew him from Jazz Ost-West in Nuremberg. The introduction to the title song is played on a keyboard, with the Robbi-Tobbi motif encountering the listener several times in different variations. The chorus notation has a lot of key notes (KEY2 and KEY1). Why and how do you play something like that? The reason lies in the very sophisticated harmonization, where the strings part delivers very impressive transitions and the flute some successful fill-ins!

1562. Mon Amour Medley by James Last is a live hits collection from one of his Dutch tours. The title 1.Mon-Amour is from the group BZN (Band Zonder Naam; Dutch for “band without a name”). BZN's big breakthrough began with the song "Mon Amour" (1976), which remained number 1 on the charts for over five weeks. 2. Comment ça va is a bilingual pop song by Dutch boy band The Shorts. The piece was released in 1983 by EMI. 3. Paloma Blanca is a 1975 hit by the group George Baker Selection, a Dutch pop band. The group began in 1967 under the name Soul Invention. It was renamed in 1969 after the singer and George Baker. Since the early 1970s, the George Baker Selection has been successful throughout Europe, even in the U.S.A.

1563. Simply The Best is the first greatest hits compilation by Tina Turner and was released in 1991 by Capitol Records. The album contains Turner's most popular hits since her comeback in the early 1980s. It also features three new songs that were previously unreleased: "Love Thing", "I Want You Near Me" and "Way of the World", as well as a newly recorded dance version of Turner's classic "Nutbush City Limits", all from 1991 and 1992 were also released as singles. From the initial successes, the hard time with a drug addict and violent husband, the failure of a great love and finally, after the separation, Tina's new beginning and rocket-like rise in the 80s to the film music of "James Bond 007 - Goldeneye" in the mid-90s. Tina Turner died on May 24, 2023 at the age of 83.

1564. Prelude II and Fugue II in C minor, BWV 847, is a piano composition by J. S. Bach from the first book of the Well-Tempered Clavier, a series of 48 preludes and fugues by the composer. The Prelude is 38 bars long and largely consists of a repeating motif. The motif consists of the progression of 16th notes in the form of broken chords in both hands. The fugue is 31 bars long and written by Bach for three voices. The two-bar theme of the fugue begins in the middle voice. What does the James Last version make of this? He played all three parts of the fugue with the strings - but left the middle part (the one from the intro) of the brass section in the relatively low oktave - and he added (composed to) new, similar 16th note phrases.
