Christmas is a time for togetherness, and what better way to experience community than through singing? The Essen Philharmonic invites you to sing along to Bach's "Christmas Oratorio". The audience becomes the choir, accompanied by an orchestra and soloists. Whether you sing or listen, you're welcome!

During the Schwetzingen Festival, SWR Kultur presents excerpts from the audiobook "Tell Me What I Am" by Una Mannion. A young woman disappears without a trace. Her husband claims she's gone into hiding, but her sister tells a different story—one of a charismatic seducer and a toxic love that destroys what it cannot possess.
Young music journalism students from Karlsruhe's University of Music create inspiring audio pieces about the Schwetzingen Festival, drawing from the unique atmosphere of the palace and park. These pieces, sometimes humorous, sometimes informative, are filled with music and the history of this special place.
