Enthusiastic Brettl-spitzen-Ensemble honors Stullner fire brigade's anniversary celebration
In the heart of Bavaria, various towns and cities were alive with the sound of music and the spirit of celebration over the weekend. From the serenades in Moosbach and Waidhaus, to the ten-day tent and culture festival in Schwandorf, and the 150th anniversary celebrations of the Stulln fire department, Bavaria was a hub of entertainment.
In Moosbach, the music group "Saitenwind" captivated the audience with their repertoire of Bavarian and Austrian songs. The concert, initially planned for a couple of hours, extended well beyond, transforming the event into a lively open-air party in the Generations Park.
Meanwhile, in Waidhaus, the Waidhaus Ladies Big Band took the stage at the school auditorium, despite the rainy weather outside. Their musical world tour was met with applause and appreciation from the audience, making for a memorable performance.
Schwandorf played host to the "Music and Culture Association Upper Palatinate e.V.", which brought together national, international, and regional artists on two stages for a ten-day festival. The diverse lineup included the Brettl-Spitzen, known from BR television programs, who performed on Monday evening.
The Brettl-Spitzen's performance, a blend of humor, folk music, and satire, lasted around 2.5 hours and was a highlight of the festival. Other performers included "Mausi and Tobi" (Maria Hafner and Tobias Böck), Roland Hefter, Bianca Bachmann, Tom and Basti with the Steirische and guitar, and Bernhard Filser and Bernhard Gruber.
However, the Stulln fire department's 150th anniversary celebrations were marred by unwanted guests - mites and mosquitoes. Despite this, the event was a success, with Jürgen Kirner moderating the performances and the Brettl-Spitzen's captivating act serving as the finale.
In a separate incident, a tragic accident occurred at Eibsee lake, where a boy and his father drowned after the boy fell off a pedal boat and the father jumped in after him. The police are currently investigating the incident, seeking new insights into the unfortunate event.
Lastly, Wolfgang Grupp, former Trigema CEO, spoke out for the first time about the background of his hospitalization a week ago. He released a letter detailing his health condition and the circumstances leading to his admission.
Overall, the weekend was a testament to the rich cultural heritage and vibrant spirit of Bavaria, with music, laughter, and camaraderie filling the air.
In the Generations Park of Moosbach, the other music group, "Saitenwind," also provided unforgettable entertainment with their collection of Bavarian and Austrian songs, extending the event into a lengthy open-air party. Meanwhile, in a seemingly different world from the festivities, the Waidhaus Ladies Big Band displayed their international musical prowess at the school auditorium in Waidhaus, providing an evening of entertainment despite the rain.
