It was a relief for musicians and visitors: The Münsing band played again on Friday after a forced break due to the Coroan.

It was an open air concert.

Münsing

- The birch and chestnut trees are subtly illuminated by lanterns. Lanterns line the way to the seats. Around 300 chairs are spread out on the lawn in the school garden at a sufficient distance. The visitors have brought blankets with them and during the concert they keep buying beer or - later, when it gets cooler - hot tea with rum. In between the church bells ring. "The only thing missing now is the cows," said conductor Michael Kavelar about the idyll.

On Friday evening until the break, Kavelar moderated the first open-air concert in the history of the Münsing Music Band (MKM). In the second part he picked up the baton himself. The 45 musicians toiled for two days and set up a covered stage in the garden of the elementary school. On the evening of the concert, the youth sold drinks, popcorn and gingerbread hearts labeled “Musikkapelle Münsing”. You could tell how much everyone enjoyed being able to finally perform in front of an audience after almost two years of corona-related forced break. The members had rehearsed in the past few weeks in the “Huberbauer” barn in Weipertshausen. The chairman of the MKM, Michael Bruckmeir, expressly thanked Toni Graf and his wife Petra for this opportunity.

In the first part, the young Laurenz Eschenlohr conducted light things like the polkas “Späte Liebe” and “Für'n Voda” as well as popular pieces by Ernst Mosch and his original Egerland musicians with fresh energy.

With the waltz "Auf der Ilkahöhe" by Karl Edelmann, the wind instruments gazed musically over Lake Starnberg to Tutzing and with Hans Krinner's own composition "Aufschwung" towards the mountains.

The conductor of the Gaißach brass band has created a wonderfully melodious work that was probably one of his first performances at the open air.

Kavelar humorously talked about excursions by the MKM to Jachenau and the Hirschberg in winter. On the latter tour, the hobby musicians, looking for support with their hands in the snow, “felt like Reinhold Messner”. More seriously, the long-time conductor reported what a tough test the pandemic had put professional artists, but also laypeople, to the test. The Münsinger are happy to be able to practice again in their rehearsal room on Hartlweg due to the current infection protection regulation - even if the hay barn had its charm.

After the break, Michael Kavelar led through more sophisticated literature, such as an adaptation of the new wave song "1980-F", known to the older generation from Thomas Gottschalk's TV show "Na sowas".

The Unterhachinger picked up the guitar himself and sang.

Everyone was thrilled.

After a good two hours, the open-air concert ended, which for Kavelar “calls for a repetition”.
