New episode of the podcast LISZTEN with library director Katharina Hofmann
In the ninth episode of LISZTEN, presenter Christofer Hameister talks to Katharina Hofmann, Head of the University Library at the Weimar University of Music.
Everything is available on the internet? Not so, says librarian Katharina Hofmann. Especially those who are looking for sheet music are still often dependent on paper, because many things are not yet digitalised. But will it always be like this? Where are we heading?
In this episode of LISZTEN, Katharina Hofmann talks to Christofer Hameister about how conservatoire libraries are changing. You can also find out how the librarian came to her profession, what role Weimar plays in her life and why it's all somehow connected to a recorder and tango dancing.

In the 150th anniversary year of the University of Music FRANZ LISZT Weimar, the new podcast LISZTEN was launched. We don't look back at our history, but talk to the people who shape the University today.
Who teaches, studies and works here? How did they find their way to music and to the University? And what keeps them busy outside of music? Every month, different people from the fields of study, teaching and administration have their say - unfiltered and honest.
Presenter Christofer Hameister studied school music at the University of Music FRANZ LISZT in Weimar and completed his journalistic traineeship at Antenne Thüringen in Weimar. Since 2019, he has been presenting various programmes on radio and television for Rundfunk Berlin-Brandenburg (rbb).
