- Deutsche Welle
Manchester, located in the north-west of England, is not just famous for its dismal weather and as the home of the world's longest-running soap opera, Coronation Street. Manchester also has an enviable musical heritage. Bands such as Joy Division, New Order, The Happy Mondays, Ting Tings and Hurts all hail from the capital of the north-west. The city holds a particular fascination for music journalist Amy Zayed, who brings us this edition of our Europe on a Shoestring Series.
