Dear Mr. Bösel, dear Mr. Rolletter,

Our instructions to Tobias Bösel and Siegfried Rolletter were very “simple”. The music for REPORT MAINZ/Das Erste (mainprogramm/first television channel) should be strong and powerful, the same as our investigative journalists. It should have the drive and also be harsh in there impression and should fit into the new design of REPORT MAINZ. The question was how could be our words translated into music? How could that problem be solved? This challenge was excellent solved by the team Bösel and Rolletter. This is exactly the music which we wanted. It is a shame that the music finishes always so quickly with in introduction. Many thanks for your professional work.

Best Regards

Brigitta Weber, SWR Head of Editorial Office of REPORT MAINZ Domestic Department

Dear Mr. Bösel, dear Mr. Rolletter,

a strong brand like REPORT MAINZ/Das Erste (mainprogramm/first television channel) needs a strong music. The signature tune of our ARD political program is now a strong music. You have composed a music which will be recognized and stay in one’s mind. When we have planned this year the relaunch of REPORT MAINZ broadcasting it was obvious that the basic melody which you composed as well will stay. Very often I am buzzing the sound.

The trademarks of REPORT MAINZ are the fox and the music. When the fox creeps over the screen he represents our investigative journalists, he is on track to bring the light up. It is brilliant how you translated our journalistic attitude into the music. I will thank to you both for this great performance. I am looking forward for further projects with you, either in film reports or sound designs. You are well-known as two musicians who understand the editors and journalists.

Best Regards

Fritz Frey SWR Editor in Chief TV, Presenter of REPORT MAINZ
