Soon come… The RFC 2012 sessions have been videotaped and we’ll put them up by and by.
But first here are some trailers.
Our friends from secretmedia have been around this year’s Campus and cornered some of our speakers and delegates with their camera.
So now we have a trailer and two testimonial clips for your pleasure.
Have a look and spread the word.
RFC 2013 will take place September 26th-28th, better mark the date already!
On the 6th of November twenty representatives of the German music industry will be off to Canada. The high ranking delegation (for names of the delegates see below) is visiting on the invitation of the Reeperbahn Festival whose partner event is the “Nova Scotia Music Week”.
The showcase event is presenting about 100 artists from the Canadian province of Nova Scotia from the 8th to 11th of November. Some of these have already appeared in international events such as the Reeperbahn Festival, among them “Ben Caplan”, “Rich Auchoin” or “In-Flight-Safety”. The “Nova Scotia Music Week” (www.nsmw.ca) is also attracting about 700 professionals from the whole of Canada and the USA to the seaport city of Liverpool (NS) on the Atlantic coast.
The “Nova Scotia Music Week” is being staged by “Music Nova Scotia”, one of the most active music export organisations of Canada.
Scott Long, Executive Director Music Nova Scotia: “Germany is one of the key markets for bands from Canada. Reeperbahn Festival not only offers a platform to present our talent in Germany to an international audience, but also helps us to bring essential German industry people to Nova Scotia Music Week. In Nova Scotia we have many upcoming export ready artists. I am very confident that these artists will grab the attention of German bookers and promoters and this would not be possible without our partnership with Reeperbahn Festival .”

Nova Scotia Music Week, Liverpool, Kanada, 8.-11.11.2012

Claudio Trotta
We are very pleased to announce another keynote speaker for the Reeperbahn Festival conference.
Claudio Trotta of Barley Arts is the most successful independent concert promoter in Italy—and he has a reputation for saying what he thinks. Whether organising shows for AC/DC, Queen, Ray Charles, Pearl Jam, Guns N’ Roses, or Bruce Springsteen, Trotta is an old‐school impresario with a very modern understanding of today’s concert business—and this is reflected above all in his pointed comments on current events in politics and (the music) business.
In his speech on this year’s conference theme, “Diversity at Risk?!”, Trotta will take aim at the concert business’s current market position in the context of a crisis‐ridden Europe.
Claudio Trotta has been in the concert business since 1975 and head of Italian concert agency Barley Arts since 1979. In addition to the above‐mentioned acts, his roster of artists includes KISS, The Cure, Nneka, and the Chemical Brothers. In 2006, he organised the largest single‐artist concert of all time featuring top Italian act Luciano Ligabue and a 170,000‐strong crowd.
Together with our partner Music Services Asia (MSA) we invite professionals from Asia to attend Reeperbahn Festival 2012 and benefit from special rates and conditions.
“We are very excited to work with a fresh and vibrant European festival with whom we’ll be able to open a window to the Asian music industry,” says Dona Inthaxoum, Business Development Manager for Music Services Asia. “One of our missions is to build up a sound platform for the development of Asian businesses and artists in the region and overseas, and we feel like Reeperbahn Festival is the right partner to implement a first link towards Europe.”
