If you can't fly to Germany for the music festival season, we'll bring the concerts and performances to you! Concert Hour features live recordings of the world's music stars performing in Germany's palaces, churches and concert halls, bringing a sense of the immediacy and festivity of these renowned musical events. The one-hour program is broadcast every Sunday or listen to the audio stream here on the Internet.
Hosted and produced by Rick Fulker, Concert Hour explores the diversity of the events and locations of Germany's renowned festivals.
Some festivals revolve around a certain composer, such as the Bach Festival in Leipzig, the Richard Wagner Festival in Bayreuth and the Beethoven Festival in Bonn. We also pay a visit to Germany's big, regional festivals, such as the statewide Schleswig-Holstein Music Festival in the North, MDR Summer Music in the East and the Rheingau Festival in central Germany.
The concerts are recorded live by Deutsche Welle and its sister broadcasters in the ARD -- Germany’s public broadcasting network.
