Unforgettable Moments
"In a world of peace and love, music would be the universal language," wrote the American author H. D. Thoreau. The reverse is also true: music creates peace, love, and a sense of connection. We wish you all, from the bottom of our hearts, a happy, healthy, and as peaceful a New Year as possible in 2026—with ganz —and many such moments!
Christmas Joy
“Rejoice, be glad, arise, praise these days, and extol what the Most High has done today!”—With this beautiful quote from the Christmas Oratorio, we wish everyone a “Merry Christmas” from the bottom of our hearts!
A Double Dose of Enchanting Piano Music
Sometimes all good things come in twos. Namely when it comes to our follow-up concerts. Both at the Hohe Mark Clinic in Oberursel and at the Augustinum senior citizens' residence in Bad Soden, our young pianists sparked storms of enthusiasm with their fantastic piano playing.
