33rd German Evangelical Church Day
in April 2011 I wrote:
I get good news, in June I'll be part of a big event 'The German Evangelical Church Day'. It's an event with over 150 different choirs and more than 3300 events over a period of 5 days. I'll have two performances there with a project choir. The german popular boys choir 'Dresdner Kreuzchor' ( Dresden = Florence of the Elbe, Kreuzchor = cross choir) will be there, too.
I'm just a bit afraid about the accommodation, cause I've to sleep in a community-accommodation which - at this event - often is a gym of a school. There are no beds & you have to sleep on the floor with a thin sleeping pad :?
Today:
Well, Church Day is over, I was there for 3 appearances. The festival took place 1st June 2011 til 5th June 2011 and 300 000 contributors and participants were there. Community-accomodation was hard for me but it was worth it. With the choir project we had two open air appearances (best weather) & one in a church.
Second and last one was the best. At the second one we sang a cantata together with hundreds of members from other choirs!
The last one was a 'hiking-concert' cause we went from place to place - in the church, on the street, at the station - & every time we sang a few songs.
Here are the impressions:
