Acrobats and wild beasts

No question, most children love the circus. For many children, it may even be a dream to stand in the ring as an artist themselves one day. But it takes a lot of courage to walk over a pile of broken glass without batting an eyelid. Or even to perform acrobatic lifting maneuvers.
For the elementary school students of kirchehrenbach this dream came true. They were allowed to perform as fakirs, acrobats, sword artists, clowns and wild beasts. The piccadelli children’s circus from bamberg was a guest at the elementary and middle school.
"It made me feel really good", says little paula (8), who successfully tried her hand at acrobatics. For all boys and girls it was an exciting experience. And a welcome change from the daily school routine. The first to fourth graders dived into the colorful world of the circus with the circus directors heidrun muller-gunzelmann and irmi krawielitzki. On a total of four school mornings (one class practiced on each morning), the students and the trainers put together a complete circus program. Instead of math and german, there was suddenly plate spinning and balancing on the schedule. This demanded commitment and concentration from all, in order to enter the numbers in such a short time. Whereby the spab was always in the foreground. The project was made possible by the school’s forderverein, led by chairwoman birgit gebhardt. "It is important to show the students that school can also be fun", she describes the background idea of the project. It was not difficult for the children to put themselves into the daily circus routine and to formally outgrow themselves in the process. Lovely costumes and a true-to-style backdrop contributed to the circus atmosphere. The gymnasium was transformed into a circus tent and bathed in spotlights. The final show also went off without a hitch and delighted parents, grandparents, siblings, relatives, friends and teachers of the children.
Mayor anja gebhardt also came as an honorary guest. The one or other spectator escaped with the individual numbers of the oftentimes an astonished "ah" and "oh". The coaches were visibly pleased. "It doesn’t get any better than this, krawielitzki praised the eager young artists after the performance.
The circus director did not want to tell curious people how to get over the broken pieces barefoot and unharmed and how to lie unharmed on a nail board. "That remains a circus secret", winked at them. The kirchehrenbach elementary school students know it naturally.
Fordervereins chairwoman gebhardt and four other members watched the show with one crying and one laughing eye. For them it was the last presentation, as they will not stand for election in the new elections.

This year the saalemusicum begins at the spring in alsleben and ends with the gemunden festival on 30. July in gemunden. The saalemusicum march has developed "as a kind of anthem of our event" developed. What the project director would like to see were artists who not only perform specifically in their hometown, but can also be seen at saalemusicum events in the neighboring town or on other dates. In the coming year 2018, the saalemusicum will start for the 15th time. For the first time. This birthday is to be celebrated with a central event, such as the "european music day", to be celebrated. Politicians are also to be invited to the events to a greater extent. "Important and very promotional" the artistic director named the banners, advertising posters and flyers. The program in particular had a major influence on the number of visitors: despite the rain, a large number of guests turned up. After various events, the festival will take place on friday, 7. July, in niederlauer the flobubergabe to the district bad kissingen takes place. On 30. July ends the saalemusicum 2017 from 11 o’clock with much music in gemunden.
