Advent concerts – not again, it’s always the same. Some will say in the pre-christmas rush. Somehow that may be so. The brass band of markt burkardroth and the burkardroth choir proved that there is another way on sunday afternoon in the burkardroth "st" parish church. Peter in chains. The listeners were surprised how they could slow down and get ready for the festive season thanks to an unusual program. The organizers succeeded in giving a concert that was not an everyday occurrence, and the audience in the parish church, which was filled to capacity, was enthusiastic right from the start.

Already the introduction with the bombastic work "ukrainian bell carol" by the blaservereinigung markt burkardroth, under the musical direction of manuela moller, was a bang to get out of the hectic christmas time. Impressive was also the interpretation of "comfort ye my people" and "every valley" from "the messiah by georg friedrich handel. Voluminous and soulfully intoned manuela moller succeeded in a wonderful interpretation, which impressed.

For a long time now, five smart guys from los angeles have been catapulting the music pub "horst" in eltmann into the stratosphere of rockabilly madness and became the announced "rock 'n' roll bombardment" more than just.

The record label "wild records" from the u.S. Brought out the wild known "delta bombers" as well as the frontsanger lou ferns alias slim from "the desperados have been a household name for many fans for years with their so-called wild desperate-rock-'n'-roll, a mixture of 50s rock, blues and rockabilly elements.
The beginning in eltmann was made by slim with his songs "let's get wild" and "let's have some fun. He even had a surprise in store in between.

The women parade across the anger in the homecoming play and sing the marian hymn "you with the child" with great fervor. The little pious song has become a munnerstadt marian song over the decades. The play was not originally written for the festival.
According to bruno eckert, the play was written by the author of the heimatspiel, pastor ludwig nudling, for the folk play "the kiliani frankenfahrt". This play was performed in wurzburg in 1926 and has largely fallen into oblivion today. The music, however, is probably not from nudling. She is attributed to a wurzburg canon. His name is unknown; that’s what it says in the little book "historisches volksschauspiele in franken" from H.-rudolf becher. Even bruno eckert can’t say more about the origin of the piece. Although the history of the home game is well documented, "we are missing details", according to the chairman.
Rudolf becher wrote in his publication that "nudling’s image of the virgin mary is based on typical french marian devotion". His marian song, written for the wurzburg festival, was therefore probably a good fit for the home play, in which the veneration of mary plays a central role.
On sunday, for the premiere of the 2013 home game, the song was sung again. His text is a bit familiar in today’s time, but this does not change the popularity of the piece in munnerstadt. The chairman of the heimatspiel community, bruno eckert, is convinced that the mary’s song is more than just a part of the heimatspiel text for many of the performers. "The song has something", feels it bruno eckert. When the song is sung in the play, he senses the emotion among the performers.There are two songs that make him feel tingly: "silent night in the night" and "you with the child".
The mary song at the heimatspiel is probably a song limited to munnerstadt until today. Bruno eckert once heard a fatima pilgrim from the dettelbach area during a television report about the sounds he was familiar with. Dettelbach parish administrator father richard hebdorfer, however, does not know the piece, but does not exclude that it is sung by individual pilgrim groups.
Regional cantor peter rottmann assumes that the mary song is sung especially in munnerstadt. If it is heard elsewhere, then it is certainly a munnerstadt export, according to rottmann.
In munnerstadt the mary song is not only at the home play to hear. It is also sung at the swedish procession, at mary’s birth service or at weddings and funerals of members of the heimatspiel congregation.
While the 400 or so spectators at the anger were completely under the spell of the heimatspiel, the rest of the city was in a carefree market mood. As has been the case for years, the schutzengelmarkt was not only a pleasant place to shop, but also a pleasant place to stop for a bite to eat, for example in the newly-opened "schutzengelmarkt" the integrative old town cafe (formerly cafe bach) or at the numerous club festivals. For many years, associations from munnerstadt, such as the small animal breeders, the turmerverein, the red cross or the rhonklub, have used this market and home game sunday to hold a festival. The guests thank them with numerous appearances.

"The three sacred songs by felix mendelssohn-bartholdy are actually written as soli for altists", tells stegmann. Before the summer vacations, he tried out with his children's choir whether his young singers could meet the challenge. And they can.
