Spazieren in Berlin: radioplays
Author Franz Hessel wrote “Spazieren in Berlin” in 1929. Inspired by his texts, our COB-composers wrote music for a series of radio-plays, which were broadcast in March 2013 by rbb-Kultur radio. The project was also featured during a special programme by Ulf Drechsel in his Late Night Jazz programme (Kulturradio) on Sunday 10th March: “The Making of “Spazieren in Berlin”
In March 2014 the Leipziger Buchfunk is presenting the CD during the Leipziger Buchmesse:
