A city anthem for Hamburg that changes genre every ninety seconds, because the city did. A Low German dock shanty opens it, then a Baroque chorus, a lone piano, beat-club rock and roll, show tunes, punk, indie, hip hop and a festival that puts all of it on one street. Two voices trade the whole way. It ends quietly, at the emigration halls, on a single word.
Mach Schau Means Put On A Show

Style
A genre-switching city medley shared by male and female leads in broad North German accents, opening a cappella as a Low German dock shanty and moving through Baroque chamber strings, upright piano, raw beat-club rock and roll, brassy show tune, three-chord punk, talk-sung indie, boom-bap, four bars of techno and a full-band festival chorus, with accordion and harbour horn recurring.
