Jürgen Becker

In the organizer's words:

YOUR DISCO

History in slices - how music makes politics

Without the revolutionary invention of the electric guitar, history would have taken a different course: the 1968ers had Jimi Hendrix, the hippies had Janis Joplin, the squatters had Ton Steine Scherben, the peace movement had Bots & BAP, the women's movement had Ina Deter, the punks had Patti Smith. It is the soundtrack and its resonance in society that makes a movement successful. Today, the climate movement has no sound of its own and is in danger of losing its way. A catastrophe that Jürgen Becker analyzes perfectly with "Deine Disco".

"At a time when almost everything - sometimes even democracy - is being bad-mouthed, a cabaret artist doesn't have to constantly put his finger in the wounds of the times," says Jürgen Becker, who did just that in his 28 years as presenter of the renowned WDR-Mitternachtsspitzen.
