Promotional poster from Disques Pathe - "OBITUARIES Yvette Horner, 95, Kitschy-Cool Musician, Dies By NEIL GENZLINGER The accordionist Yvette Horner performing on the French Riviera in 1977. Agence France-Presse — Getty Images When George Gershwin and DuBose Heyward were writing “Summertime,” the evocative “Porgy and Bess” aria, they probably never imagined that it would one day be performed by a British pop singer known for androgynous outfits and a 71-year-old Frenchwoman with red-orange hair playing an accordion. Yet for that woman, Yvette Horner, accompanying Boy George on “Summertime” in 1994 on the French television program “Taratata” was just one moment in a deliciously eclectic career. She played at high-end Paris fashion shows. She appeared in Maurice Béjart’s reimagining of “The Nutcracker.” She recorded with the Nashville harmonica player Charlie McCoy." NYTimes
