‘14 Years Ago’: Michel Follet’s Retirement from Belgian Radio - Belgiumby Rob Howard |
 The Accordions Worldwide news for the week ending January 19th 2001 noted the retirement of Michel Follet, one of Belgium’s best known radio presenters, and great enthusiast for and presenter of accordion music. We hope others have helped to similarly promote the accordion in Belgium, a country whose accordion events are often reported in the Accordions Worldwide weekly news. Accordion Lover and Radio Announcer Retires – Belgium Contributed by Joeri De Jongh, Accordo Magazine, Belgium Belgian radio announcer Michel Follet retired from his National Radio career on December 30th. Michel was well known for his musical knowledge, promoting old music from the 1940s to the 1980s, accordion music and film themes. He was very keen on musette and music by composer Georges Dellerue. Michel was one of very few announcers in Belgium who helped to promote accordion music on the radio! |
