Soundful community: Drei-Franken-Singen inspires in Scheinfeld

Scheinfeld, Deutschland - The traditional three-franc singing in the monastery church of Mariä was impressively over the stage on June 12, 2025. Six choirs from the region offered the audience a potpourris of songs that ranged from spiritual to secular and folk sounds. Participants and listeners were taken on a musical journey through various eras, styles and emotions. The event was brilliantly accompanied by Heinrich Stier at the organ game, which gave the performances a special depth. Sometimes solemnly, sometimes lively - the choirs presented their pieces with heart and dedication, which was also rewarded with long -lasting applause.

The contributions of the Burgebrach men's choir from the singing club in Steigerwald e.V., which took part in the three-franc singing for the third time this year, must be particularly emphasized. Among other things, they offered the "prison choir" from Verdi's opera Nabucco and the "Jägerchor" from Weber's "Freischütz". This lively choral culture promotes the sense of community in the region and brings together both old and new faces, as [Wiesentbote] reports.

a feast of the community

The three-franc singing is more than just a musical performance. It lives from tradition to bring choirs together from Central, Upper and Lower Franconia to make music and exchange ideas. The connecting character of the event was not only shown in the performances of the choirs, but also in the common closing song, with which audience and singer sang together. These moments of common ground arouse choral culture to new life.

With the conclusion of this year's festival, the future is already looking for the future. The next appointment for the three-franc singing is certain: On May 17, 2026, the choirs will come together again in the Steigerwaldhalle in Burgebrach. Interested parties can contact the Burgebrach men's choir for more information.

The future of choral music

The choral music as a whole faces challenges. As [ZDF] reports on the current situation of the German choirs, many traditional groups are fighting with membership loss. Nevertheless, there is also hope: new formats such as pub choirs and initiatives such as "The Voice Collective" show that singing in the community is still in demand. In this context, events such as the three-franc singing play an important role, because they strengthen social networking and promote the community.

The opinion of experts like Johannes Hasselhorn underlines the need to inspire children early on for singing. In schools and kindergartens, music lessons are often not given the necessary importance in terms of young people. So that choral culture will bloom in the future, it is important to adapt the formats and promote musical exchange.

in Scheinfeld once again became clear last weekend that singing together and prepares joy. It is to be hoped that the three-franc singing will continue as an active and lively sign of choral culture in the region.
