2023

A small series of pictures from Krefeld. Their instruments are played by Charlotte and Valentin, otherwise the workshops Paas from Cologne and Heveling from Wuppertal have provided us with bandoneons. On zeri pictures you can see Valentin with his father Roman Marreck. Mr Marreck is currently deputy headmaster and will take over the management of the Krefeld music school from 1 January 2024, when I retire. The pictures of the final concert show our lecturer Mrs Toma Neill and the Bandoneon Orchestra Essen, which can be seen as a relic of the (workers') culture of the Ruhr area in the 20th century. The old lady is over 80 years old and still plays according to the formerly common auxiliary notation (called clothesline). 


Thank you again for your help
