2016 Summer Concert

On July 11, 2016, the summer concert took place at the Steinmühle. The evening began with the 6th and 7th-grade wind ensembles and the concert band, conducted by Stephan Reissig, Andreas Jamin, and Ulrike Wilmsmeyer. This was followed by individual pieces performed by the three groups—BK 6, BK 7, and the concert band—all of whom played at a high level. The evening continued with a piano solo by Arthur Laux. A special highlight of the program was a group of seventh-graders. A few months earlier, the school’s booster club had purchased bagpipes, which seventh-grade students used under the direction of Daniel Sans and Thomas Zöller, performed with a certified bagpiper from Frankfurt. The Swing & Sing club set the mood, thrilling the audience with two dance and vocal performances that had everyone clapping along. Also performing was the 6th-grade choir, whose students had taken their first steps toward formal choral training over the course of the year. They were accompanied on their pieces by the Chamber Music Club under the direction of Frank Wemme. The finale featured the choir together with the bagpipers, the chamber music group, and the Swing & Sing Club. They performed the song “Hanging Tree” from the movie “The Hunger Games” and received thunderous applause.
