What song are you listening to? This is a piece of homework I set my year 11 class last week. It uses two YouTube videos that were uploaded only recently. I liked the idea at once: Tyler Cullen went around New York City, asking people with headphones on, what song they were listening to. Kate [...] Die Amberger Chorgemeinschaft führt am 3. April zusammen mit dem Bohemia Sinfonieorchester Prag das “Deutsche Requiem” von Johannes Brahms auf. Eine sehr gute Aufnahme dieses berühmten Werks für Chor, Orchester und Solisten hat der MDR vor einiger Zeit übertragen; Christian Thielemann dirigiert dort die Sächsische Staatskapelle Dresden und den Chor der Sächsischen Staatsoper Dresden, Christine Schäfer [...] Siehe dazu:
