Derrick Gee’s Radio Weekender
Sunday Synths & Sounds – Session 2
Discover music with the Creator in Residence
On the second day of Derrick Gee’s »Radio Weekender«, the Elbphilharmonie’s Creator in Residence invites you to enjoy a colourful programme that transforms the Kaispeicher into a pop-up marketplace: visitors can browse through the record crates of »Honey Bucket Records«, enjoy coffee and cake, and experiment with modular synthesizers themselves. There will also be a live podcast and, as a musical highlight, a short concert with academists from the NDR Elbphilharmonie Orchestra. Derrick Gee guides you through the afternoon and talks to musicians and guests.
The other Derrick Gee’s Radio Weekender events:
Sat, 21.6.2025, 18:00: Radio Hour & DJ Set
Sun, 22.6.2025, 13:00: Sunday Synths & Sounds – Session 1
This season, Derrick Gee discovers the Elbphilharmonie as Creator in Residence and is sharing his experiences with his 1.5 million followers on social media. After the first live event in Hamburg, his »Radio Hour« in November 2024, the Australian, who describes himself as a »professional music fan«, now curates an entire weekend of events.
