Message from Director General of Radio Romania Ovidiu Miculescu "In 2012, at the first RadiRo Festival, our aim was to bring to Bucharest music as performed by public radio symphony orchestras. Today, for its second edition, we have succeeded in bringing classical music to Bucharest and I tell you this with pride in order to offer it to concert audiences and then give it back to the whole world. We are doing this by broadcasting the concerts on the Radio Romania Music and Cultural Channels, but also via the platforms of the European Broadcasting Union, representing a potential audience of millions of listeners."
