Welcome to Danetkas - Music Stories!
What is Danetkas? This short episode will introduce you to our podcast series about classical music.
Danetkas are riddles, mysterious sentences that, in the beggining, don't make sense, they are many times paradoxical, but once you discover the true story behind those enigmatic sentences, you will see that everything makes sense!
Two players are needed to play this game. One is the Master (who knows the answer), the other is the investigator, who will try to figure out the story. In this podcast, you, the listener will always be the investigator.
After listening to each episode, you can then play Danetkas with your family and friends, performing the role of the Master.
