A Quiet Hour: Bavarian Christmas Sounds in Freising
As Advent begins outside, the St. Peter and Paul Monastery Church in Freising opens its doors for a special musical Bavarian Christmas reading. During A Quiet Hour, festive music, contemplative texts, and humorous stories come together to create a atmospheric concert experience in a historic church setting.
Music School Freising Lights Up Advent
Students from the Music School Freising will shape the evening in varying ensembles. They are supported by experienced teachers: Hannes Althaus on guitar, Uta Schmitt-Kugler on harp, Manuela Schwarz on dulcimer and overall direction, Gertrud Wittkowsky on zither, and Jürgen Wüst on trumpet.
The musical orchestration ranges from alpine melodies to Christmas sounds. Delicate zither tones, warm dulcimer sounds, harp arpeggios, and the brilliant sound of the trumpet create a varied stage performance that unfolds its impact especially in the acoustics of the monastery church.
Contemplative Texts and Humorous Stories
Between the musical performances, Pastor Stephan Rauscher from Grafing reads contemplative texts and humorous stories. This creates a gentle alternation between reading and music, allowing space for reflection, laughter, and getting into the mood for the upcoming holidays.
Advent Atmosphere in the Monastery Church
The historic St. Peter and Paul Monastery Church in Neustift forms the festive backdrop for this evening. The interplay of church space, natural reverberation, and live Bavarian Christmas music creates an intense atmosphere where each melody resonates long after. The audience's mood thrives on the balance between focused listening, warm sound moments, and shared anticipation for Christmas.
Free Entry and Doing Good
Entry to A Quiet Hour is free. At the end of the concert, a small donation is requested for the Aktion Menschen in Not of the Freisinger Tagblatt. Thus, the evening combines musical enjoyment with a social cause.
Conclusion: A Quiet Highlight of the Advent Season
A Quiet Hour promises an atmospheric Christmas concert with young musicians, dedicated teachers, Bavarian folk music, and literary moments. Those wishing to start the Advent season with live music, stories, and a special church acoustics will experience an hour full of warmth, tradition, and musical closeness in Freising.
