Summer Concert: Another “Full House” at the Forum

At the start of the summer concert at the Forum, only standing room was left—and even those spots were quickly filled. The event, with its many guests, was yet another example in the series of Steinmühle events of just how popular school events are—and how much the Steinmühle community had longed for them during the pandemic restrictions. As a precaution, many were still happy to wear a face mask!

The 6th-grade choir performed songs by Adel Tawil & Co., with Daniel Sans accompanying them on the piano. Jeannine Walter’s upcoming retirement was also mentioned, even though the official ceremony wasn’t scheduled to take place until three days later at the faculty’s summer party. The students had already performed a serenade with the fitting title “Happy Ending.”

The summer concert was hosted, as always, by Ulrike Wilmsmeyer. The 5th-grade wind ensemble, led by Andreas Jamin, showcased their skills. The upper-level choir, directed by Daniel Sans, impressed the audience with their fabulous vocal performances. Wind Ensemble Class 6 and the concert band, led by Stephan Reissig, demonstrated how one can improve even further by continuing to play a (wind) instrument beyond Class 5.

The many enthusiastic attendees were able to continue enjoying the evening on the Steinmühle grounds after the event had ended. As has been the custom in recent years, the school administration invited everyone to the boathouse to meet the Steinmühle rowing team over grilled food and cold drinks, learn about their latest activities, and marvel at the investments made by the rowing club and the school in the newly renovated boathouse.
