"Young Blowpipe Ensemble of North Rhine-Westphalia performing at Kaarst"
In the cultural heart of Neuss, North Rhine-Westphalia, the "Fantasia" orchestra, a group of young and talented musicians, is set to perform a captivating concert. The orchestra, comprised of mandolin, guitar, and bass players aged 16 to 27, has gained recognition for their exceptional skills, with many members being winners of prestigious competitions such as Jugend musiziert at the state and national levels, as well as other national and international competitions.
The concert, which promises an enchanting evening of music, will feature a programme inspired by the magical world of fantasy. Pieces like "Theater of Dreams", a world premiere by Valentin Dicken, "Reverie of the Poet" by Giuseppe Manente, and "Imaginary Suite" by Gianluca Fortino, are all set to be performed. A highlight of the concert will be the film music-inspired "Fantasia Pastorale", where 14-year-old violin prodigy Luise Auhage takes centre stage.
The purpose of this concert extends beyond the love for music. The proceeds from the event will be donated to the Schmetterling Initiative, a mobile children's and youth hospice service in Rhein Kreis Neuss. The Schmetterling Initiative offers invaluable support to families whose child has a life-limiting illness or has passed away.
It's important to note that the Schmetterling Initiative is not directly associated with the orchestra or its programme. However, the shared goal of bringing joy and support to the community has brought them together for this special event.
While there are other Fantasia-themed concerts happening around the world, this unique collaboration between the Fantasia orchestra and the Schmetterling Initiative makes this event a must-attend for music enthusiasts and those who wish to contribute to a worthy cause. The concert, under the direction of Eva Caspari, is set to take place in Neuss, offering a magical evening of music and a chance to support a remarkable initiative.
The concert, encouraged by the shared goal of bringing joy and support to the community, will be a voluntary donation event where the proceeds will be given to the Schmetterling Initiative. The audience can expect an enchanting evening of entertainment, featuring pieces like "Theater of Dreams", alongside a film music-inspired performance of "Fantasia Pastorale", showcasing the talent of 14-year-old violin prodigy Luise Auhage.
