German artist Pänke performs his soulful song “Time Travel.” Enjoy!

Knud Seckel sings the famous Falcon song by “Der von Kürenberg,” which is likely one of the most well-known Middle High German texts. It originates from around the year 1160. The author, Der von Kürenberg, is said to have come from and worked in the Bavarian/Austrian region and is considered as the first minstrel singer known by name who sang in German.

With their song “Schöne Neue Welt” [Brave New World] the Berlin Hip-Hop and Reggae band Culcha Candela criticizes the superficiality and indifference of the “fun society” towards problems like climate change.
