From haunting vocals in electronic to pop music settings (AFAR, Athenaïs, elen in wavs, L Twills, Sea Change), bands (Perera Elsewhere, Probably Nancy) and solo concerts with voice and instrument Bison Rouge on cello, La Chica on piano, Radio Hito on piano) to choirs (Heart Chor, Maradiuli, Neuer Kammerchor Berlin) and classical song (Are Women People?, Liedstadt) - in 2024 we celebrated a festival with many voices.
There was also plenty to see and hear away from the human voice. Concerts, raves, performances and workshops, interventions, a kids' programme and more.
There was even a reading stage last year thanks to serious case of deformation.
A warm thank you goes out to our collectives Das Pack, dunkelstrom, Kollektiv eigenklang, Hütte, Lange.Weile, Octopus Collective and Spechtcrew, who organise the festival grounds so lovingly every year.
It's a place I would eagerly invite my entire family to, from my siblings to my grandmother. What stands out most to me is the genuine engagement of the audience. Whether it's singing along, soaking in the stillness, or getting lost in moments of pure inspiration, every performance is met with a palpable passion. It’s rare to see such a deep connection between artists and listeners, and that’s what makes Detect Classic Festival truly unique.

You can now also find us on SoundCloud, where we have put together some playlists with sets and mixtapes by artists from the festival editions since 2018 (!). We will gradually expand the playlists, so feel free to send us a message on SoundCloud or Insta about which sets you would like us to add.
