Colorfully disguised and especially musical: This is how the little artists from the Eching music school presented themselves at the carnival concert.
Eching – Who would have thought that Indians, bandits, butterflies, tiger kittens and other foolish two- and four-legged creatures are so musical? At the carnival concert of the music school, small ballet mice, various instrumental soloists and the choir of the Echinger middle school, conducted by Astrid Sachs, spread a lot of good humor with their potpourri in front of the full audience.
In the informal atmosphere of the Manfred-Bernt-Saal, which was decorated with colorful rainbow garlands, people danced, sang and played. On the accordion, with recorder and flute, clarinet, trumpet and violin, it was “beat after beat”. There was a lot of applause for the mostly short pieces and songs from all over the world and from many epochs – from classical with Bach or Handel to folkloric to modern, with dance and film music or country songs.

The entertaining program was opened with a carnival party, during which the little dancers jumped, fluttered and floated all over the stage. One of the concert highlights was the flute solo (from the Sonata in F major Gigue) by Georg Friedrich Handel performed by Dharmakadhikari Gayatri, who was dressed in a traditional sari. Emma and Greta Wagner, dressed in casual sportswear and baseball hats, performed the first movement from Johann Sebastian Bach’s demanding Concerto for Two Violins. The musical journey of the middle school choir, a successful cooperation project “Pupils make music” between school and music school, funded by the International Foundation for Culture and Civilization, also had international resonance and led from “Good Morning” in England to Djingalla from Latvia to ” Nenita uno” to Puerto Rico. And with Frank Ramond’s “I count to three” performed with a lot of expression and verve at the end, everyone ended up back in the here and now.
Those who wanted could also take one or the other verse as an invitation: “Hey, that’s going great, now I’ll take care of the climate. You are now reducing CO2, right now, I’ll count to three!” The entertaining carnival concert, at which all the species that performed were able to get a strong final applause together on the stage, went well in any case.
