SHAKESPEARE ON OPERAPHILE _____________________________
The Bard comes to OPERAphile starting February 20. Host, soprano Joanna Go presents —
Hector Berlioz’s Beatrice et Benedict based on Much Ado About Nothing; Vincenzo Bellini’s I Capuleti ed I Montecchi and Charles Gounod’s Romeo et Juliette, both spotlights on Shakespeare’s famous star-crossed lovers; and Giuseppe Verdi’s Falstaff, based on The Merry Wives of Windsor and the Henry IV plays.
OPERAphile with soprano Joanna Go is DZFE’s new opera program, airing 1930 Saturday evenings. Operas are usually explored by theme. A rebroadcast of the theme cycle follows in the weeks subsequent to the initial airing. |
THE ROAD TO EASTER_____________________________ _______
Prepare to embark with us on the road to Easter with special programs, beginning February 17.
The season masterworks series this year includes The Resurrection by the premiere Lutheran composer before Bach, Heinrich Schütz; Franz Schubert’s rarely heard The Death of Lazarus; and the oratorio The Crucifixion by late 19th century English composer John Stainer.
DZFE again brings a masterfully produced radio drama by Focus on the Family Radio Theater to Manila airwaves. This Lent, it is Bonhoeffer:The Cost of Freedom, the gripping story of the theologian-pacifist who must stand against Hitler and the Third Reich for Christ and his country.
DZFE will also soon begin collecting requests for its annual Holy Week request segments, Holy Week Homespun.

DZFE RETURNS TO DAILY BROADCAST ______________________
Starting January 10, DZFE’s faithful need no longer fear flicking on their radio sets on Sunday. This January 2010, DZFE resurrects its Sunday broadcast, completing the restoration of its original 18-hour daily schedule.
In September 2003, owing to fiscal and other concerns, hours were truncated by over 40%.
The process of rebuilding the broadcast, with a commitment to quality programming in support of DZFE’s joint classical music and biblical spirituality focus, began in 30 January 2006 with the reclamation of the 2200-2400 block weekdays. The gaping five hours in the afternoon were brought back in 9 June 2008, bringing the broadcast to 18 hours a day, 6 days a week. January 10 will mark the first Sunday broadcast in six years.
Schedule changes take effect as DZFE makes several vibrant new additions to its program roster. read more…

DZFE AT 55: REASON TO CELEBRATE! _________________________
Fifty-five
years ago, on 01 June 1954, DZFE aired its maiden
broadcast, signing on at 1800 for an evening of Strauss II,
Rimsky-Korsakov, a Filipino musical and Bach motets and
chorales, before signing off at 2000. As it was then…
The last five years alone have been a time of rebirth,
sparked by a wholehearted recommitment to both our passions
— the Gospel of Jesus Christ, and, under its vast banner,
the particular field of classical music. How the Master’s
Word and the music of the masters go together…
Since 2004, our hours has been restored from a spare 55
broadcast hours a week to 108 hours, with Sundays set to
return by January 2010. Our programs have been incredibly
enriched by the cultivation of a diverse network of program
partners.

music programs.

programs.
And in the second quarter of 2009, we inaugurated a new
transmitter, doubling our transmitter output power to expand
and strengthen our signal over the Greater Metro Manila
area.

recent transmitter dedication.
