Musica - the concept…

Musica transports viewers into the world of music – from rising stars to true masters there is a rich musical landscape to explore.

The programme will primarily cover classical concerts and festivals but also touch on jazz. Musica will go backstage, throw fresh light on the creative process and let the music shine through.

Focusing mainly on the European musical scene, each show will concentrate on one specific topic, artist portrait, work or event.

Musica has collaborated with Medici.tv on the Verbier Festival and Operalia.
