An author for a detective series this time babylon berlin takes us to weimar germany is booming Film Industry at studio bob its been a detective is called in to investigate the death of actress betty venter the star of berlins 1st movie with sam. Who is behind her untimely demise detective rod searches for clues just as the stock market comes crashing down. And there to help him is his street smart colleague shot to hit on the woman hes fallen for governments are going through all these things makes them close coming from extreme times creates an extreme connection extreme in profit and what definitely does change as shall not is now working for the police shes no longer working at the mocha if the night club she has an official position so now shes working within the system and she has to keep her mouth shut sometimes she cant just become mind anymore. Can the 2 of them keep it professional babylon berlin fans are certainly used to seeing jazz drugs sex and murder but no. Take to early on about and are back for season 3 of babylon berlin d. And my colleague David Leavitts is in the studio to talk about whats really become a global sensation david welcome obviously this will be a show in 100 countries season 3 of the 4 even being released thats pretty rare for German Television what what do you how do you explain this hype right well its not just any german t. V. Show ever its the most expensive one ever made and actually its the most expensive t. V. Show ever made not in the english language the 1st 2 seasons alone cost 40000000 euros now and what theyve really been doing from the beginning is taking us back to the 1920 s. Feeding this global appetite right now for everything 1920 s. For especially berlin this crazy wild period right before the nazis took over and thats really what weve been getting from babylon berlin starting with the 1st season with a real focus on detail down to the buttons down to the ashtrays apparently for a quarter of a novelist who wrote these stories even calls up the producer and he sees a building thats built in 1930 and not in 1029. 00 so real focus on details and in this season season 3 theyre taking us into the Film Industry to the transition from silent films to talkies and it turns out that not all of the film stars are going to make the switch. So we did get a glimpse of the murder scene or should i say that looks like an apparent murder scene but we can take a closer look at that. Well theyre very good at gruesome and the plot thickens and judging by the 1st 2 seasons david solving this murder is going to be anything but a straight forward affair well it did never is really a straight forward affair and thats because daly on about the detective hes not really a straight shooter himself hes a hes a good guy basically hes very likable but in the course of solving these crimes he ends up usually committing some of his own he even the ends up killing a few people as we know from the 1st seasons and hes also got a past hes a traumatized veteran with a morphine addiction and saw a lot to this she gets that she doesnt judge him because shes had a hard knock life herself so thats a big part of the chemistry here is that seeing them interact about that and to see if their past catches up with them too much ok well were definitely looking forward to babylon berlin just want to european film award this month so more great t. V. In store with season 3 and thanks its coming to air in january i guess thats right people in the u. S. Maybe a bit earlier 23rd of january in germany thanks for bringing us that background and save it live its.

The beethoven orchestra bon under conductor de katan kicked off the celebrations honoring bands most famous son the composer was born in the western german city and 769. 00 among the guests at the gala was current band president ontopic who was involved in organizing the anniversary events what does beethoven mean to him personally but it often means just great music and all thought you meant the patient solidarity and freedom and also unity of mean lashon state premier of north rhinewestphalia beethoven clearly represents the worldliness of the rhineland region isnt this a very multicultural area we live in and his music and the music its not a drum in music its a european its a vote music. Along with plenty of beethoven the gala featured new music inspired by him with lyrics by british writer called griffiths reflecting on the composer significance today here there sung by soprano is a it ends. This. Other performers included jazz pianist olivia toma improvised in the spirit of beethoven then segue to interviews choral fantasy. The principal conductor of the local orchestra there cuffed on reflected on the responsibility involved in paying tribute to such a musical icon. Of course be driven doesnt need us actually.
