Radikal an der Basis: Das Nürnberger KOMM

The Nuremberg communication center, known as “KOMM” for short, was a nationwide pioneer. The social, youth and cultural policy experiences of that time can be found today in countless institutions throughout Germany - in the art/cultural education work of “high culture” as well as in the self-image of open district centers and cultural offerings for all social groups.

Die Sekretäre

The film talks about the rise and fall of the two most influential protagonists in GDR-politics. In succession, over long stretches even together, Ulbricht and Honecker determined the course of the GDR, of course without ever getting out of being a satellite state to the big brother in Moscow. The film looks for the caesura and crucial points in the power game between Ulbricht and Honecker.

Carlos Kleiber New Year’s Concert 1992

Johann Strauss Jr.: Waltzes and Polkas. "The Thunder and Lightning" Polka, with its flashing cymbals and booming bass drum, has always been a favorite in our household. "The Blue Danube" Waltz isn't bad either and "The Radetzky March" (by Johann Sr.) is hard to beat for clap-along fun. Suggested recording: Again, there are many recordings of these works available, but you can't be without the DVD of Carlos Kleiber conducting the Vienna Philharmonic on New Year's Day 1992 on Philips.
