    Radio Romania 91

    This Friday Radio Romania celebrates
    91 years of existence. ‘Hello, hello, this is Radio Bucharest’ were the first
    words aired by this radio station on November 1st 1928, part of the
    first broadcast by the Radiotelephony Broadcasting Corporation in Romania.






    The words were uttered by the then
    president of the aforementioned institution Dragomir Hurmuzescu, who was also the
    founding father of the Romanian radiophony. Along the years Radio Romania broadcast
    messages from leading figures who had their impact upon the country’s history.






    Designed to be a means of
    information, education and entertainment, the Romanian public radio has been
    broadcasting for 91 years now adjusting its editorial policies and surviving
    the radical regime changes that took place during its existence, from the
    democratic system between the two world wars, to the right-wing dictatorship
    around WWll, or the communist dictatorship that followed.






    Radio Romania celebrates 91st
    years of uninterrupted public service and broadcasts, 91 years of hard work and
    sacrifices but also of satisfactions in the sustained process of building the trust
    and confidence the station enjoys today, the institution’s president and
    director general Georgica Severin said on this occasion.






    ‘Either we speak about the accurate
    news on various daily events, the cultural broadcasts, the programmes devoted
    to theatre plays from national and world dramaturgy, or concerts and
    performances given by radio orchestras and choirs, this uninterrupted, relentless
    work has been always based on professionalism and respect for listeners’, Georgica
    Severin went on to say.






    Besides its well-known channels, News
    and Current Affairs, Culture, Music and the Village Antenna, Radio Romania also
    boasts several regional and local stations, as well as the online channels
    devoted to children and young people.






    The Romanian Public radio started
    to broadcast for listeners abroad as early as the 1930s and is currently
    broadcasting in 11 foreign languages: Arabic, Chinese, English, Hebrew, French,
    German, Italian, Serbian, Spanish, Russian and Ukrainian as well as in the
    Aromanian dialect.






    On its 91th anniversary, Radio
    Romania scheduled a concert given by the National Radio Orchestra as well as an
    exhibition on its premises, which can be visited until November 5th under
    the suggestive title ‘Afghanistan, Faces of War’. The exhibition has on display
    photos taken by Radio Romania’s correspondent in that country Ilie Pintea.






    The exhibition was inaugurated in
    Los Angeles under the high patronage of the country’s General Consulate in Los
    Angeles and the Cultural Institute in Bucharest in 2018 when Romania celebrated
    its 100th anniversary.
