Standing ovations in St Laurentius Grefrath

The standing ovation at the end showed that the audience was very moved by the performance. And this despite an overly long organ piece at the beginning of the concert, which sounded extremely modern, almost shrill (no criticism of the excellent organist Alfred Pollmann). Valeska Gleser's harp piece afterwards was beautiful and delightful. The main work that followed was equally moving, touching every member of the audience and listener during the 75-minute concert.

After all the effort and passion exuded by the protagonists, the wish remained to be able to hear the concert again. A big compliment to everyone! The following photos are unfortunately without the necessary sound. The video is only available for participants.
