Musician's Visit from Twin City of Compiègne
In the heart of Bavaria, the historic town of Landshut is set to host a significant event as part of the series "75 Years of Peace. Perspectives on 1945 in Landshut". On Saturday, May 10, the church of St. Pius will echo with the harmonious melodies of two renowned choirs – the Concert Choir Landshut and the "Prélude".
The performance, scheduled for 2:30 PM, promises to be a celebration of the enduring partnership between Landshut and towns in France. Deputy Mayor Ludwig Zellner, who welcomed guests from France at a reception in the town hall's grand hall on a Friday morning, emphasised the importance of this partnership. He stated that it was not just a formality but enriched by associations and personal connections.
The ticket price for regular admission is 25 euros, while a reduced price ticket of 10 euros is available for those seeking a more affordable option. Tickets can be purchased at the venue on the day of the event.
Thomas Heilmeier, the Commissioner for Town Twinning, was also present at the reception. His presence underscores the significance of this event, which comes at a time when Germany and France must continue to stand together in the future, according to Ludwig Zellner.
The partnership between Landshut and French towns is a crucial axis in Europe, symbolising the spirit of unity and cooperation that has been a cornerstone of post-war Europe. As we commemorate 75 years of peace, this event serves as a poignant reminder of the importance of these ties.
On the eve of the performance, the choir "Prélude" remains shrouded in mystery. The leader of this formation is yet to be revealed, adding an element of anticipation to the already exciting event.
The concert is just one of the many events in the series "75 Years of Peace. Perspectives on 1945 in Landshut", which aims to foster a deeper understanding of the town's history and its role in the post-war reconstruction of Europe. It promises to be an unforgettable afternoon of music and camaraderie, a testament to the enduring spirit of peace and unity.
