Wormer Leutrum-Garde Challenges National Champions Again
The Leutrum-Garde, a musical group based in Wuerm, has made a triumphant return to the stage after winning the shawm class at the 40th Baden-Württemberg State Championships, held in Heidenheim an der Brenz on October 15, 2023.
Founded in Wuerm, the Leutrum-Garde has been a staple of local music for many years. The group, which welcomes new members regardless of prior knowledge, is inviting interested individuals to join their Friday evening rehearsals at the clubhouse in Ammerau, starting at 7:30 p.m. Instruments are available for those joining the rehearsals.
The Leutrum-Garde's performance at the State Championships was near-perfect, according to the judges. They delivered a medley of Toto hits, including "Child's Anthem," "Africa," and "Rosanna," and a unique adaptation of "Tornerò" by Guildo Horn. The group's dedication and hard work in the weeks leading up to the event paid off, as they managed to retain their title from 2019.
Musical Director Florian Baehr and Chairperson Sindy Schulze expressed their pride in the active members' performance. The Association for the Promotion of Music, organisers of the State Championships, presented the Leutrum-Garde with the championship certificate and trophy at around 4 p.m.
Despite their victory, the Leutrum-Garde has yet to secure a spot in the "German Championship of Music." The location and date for the competition are yet to be determined. For the latest information, checking official German music competition websites or contacting the Leutrum-Garde directly might be necessary.
