The churches conquer baroque sounds: trumpet hits organ!

Next Sunday, August 15th, at 4 p.m., the basilica in Ottobeuren will be the setting for a festive concert with baroque trumpet and organ music. Under the direction of the talented trumpeter Hermann Ulmschneider and the experienced organist Gregor Simon, visitors are kidnapped into the glamorous world of the Baroque period. The program includes masterpieces by composers such as Georg Friedrich Händel, Tomaso Albinoni and Antonio Vivaldi as well as his own compositions by Gregor Simon and original organ literature. The sounds of historical music promise to captivate the audience and to ensure an unforgettable afternoon. Entry costs 10 euros, and the cash register opens 30 minutes before the concert begins, so everyone has the chance to secure a place and listen to the sounds.

The focus is also on the challenges of musical training in the region. Hermann Ulmschneider is not only a sought -after musician in Upper Swabia, but also a committed teacher. He teaches at music schools in Lindau and Bad Wurzach and is a soloist of the Kammerphilharmonie Bodensee-Oberschwaben and other ensembles. His colleague Gregor Simon can look back on an impressive career, which began, among other things, as a former dean's cantor in Stuttgart and Oberschwaben. So both musicians are not only artists, but also formative characters in regional music culture.

A look at the performance

The concert not only promises classic baroque pieces, but also contemporary impulses. Short organ pieces will be heard between the main works, including two choral foreplets by Johannes Brahms and an Andante by Moritz Brosig. The improvisation of Gregor Simon about the spiritual song "I want to love you, my strength", which gives up the romantic style, will be particularly exciting.

other musical highlights

The region can look forward to further concerts with Hermann Ulmschneider and other musicians in the coming weeks. Another concert in the Münster Zwiefalten takes place on Sunday, July 27th, at 5 p.m. The island of Reichenau and Memmingen are also on the program, with performances on August 10th and August 15th, at the full hour.

For lovers of baroque music and everyone who wants to experience a Sunday full of music and culture, visiting the basilica in Ottobeuren is an absolute must. It will be worthwhile to mark the appointment in the calendar and enjoy the musical delicacies that Hermann Ulmschneider and Gregor Simon have in store. Let yourself be carried away by the splendor of the music and experience an afternoon that is all about baroque sound art.
