During the 1940's, when I was a little boy growing up in New York City, one could hear a good deal of ethnic programming on the radio. One station, in particular, featured a program of German music once a week that, for some reason, especially appealed to me. There was just something about German music that I really enjoyed!
And so, today, more than half a century later, I still like German music--so much so, in fact, that I have created a number of websites and Yahoo! groups which reflect that interest. In addition, I am currently the ringmaster of four German music or music-related webrings.
The following is a list of the above-mentioned groups, websites, and webrings:
This is a cordial invitation to visit the above links and to glean the information they contain. All of the groups and the Deutsche Weihnachtsmusik site also contain music in MIDI format for your listening enjoyment. Click here for a sample of German oom-pah band music.
