It starts on January 22nd
Vienna (OTS) – On Monday, January 22nd, 2024, from 8:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m., Hans Krankl will spread his wings for the first time this year in the role of “Nachtfalke” and serve great sounds for the “dark hours”. After a 25-year break, the radio show made a successful comeback in October last year.
The charismatic all-rounder moderates – with editorial support from Radio Vienna music expert Tommy Vitera – the radio show that became legendary in the 1990s. The artist, also known as “Johann K.”, delivered red-white-red classics such as “Aspirin,” “Lonely Boy” and “Rusty Wings.” Once a month, the audience favorite will present listeners with primarily rare and rarely played as well as forgotten gems from his private collection. The music selection promises songs from genres such as soul, Italian classics, jazz, rhythm & blues, rock and Latin. In addition, the former “Goleador” and top scorer will of course tell anecdotes and interesting facts about these records. This means that “Der Nachtfalke” remains a distinctive program with an unmistakable personality that makes you want to listen to the radio. The next episode will be broadcast on Monday, February 19th from 8:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. on Radio Vienna. Listen to it on sound.ORF.at.
ORF Vienna regional director Edgar Weinzettl: “Hans Krankl’s taste in music is as legendary as his ball skills. I always had the impression that his recording collection extended across the entire penalty area. I am therefore particularly pleased to be able to present this very special pearl to our audience in Vienna and far beyond on Radio Vienna.”
Radio Vienna program director Jasmin Dolati: “Hans Krankl and the ‘Nachtfalken’ bring back many wonderful memories of the 90s. His special and extensive musical treasure and his unique personality make this show an all-time high. I look forward to hearing it again on Radio Vienna.”
Hans Krankl: “The ‘Nachtfalke’ is a show of incredibly great people, it features a lot of great artists, singers and bands. The best in the world – and that’s a joy. So I work from show to show to make it as beautiful as I feel it is at the moment, that’s the most important thing.
