Orchestra playing soon in a tent?

Bonn - the Beethoven Hall is demolished. Now the question arises: Where are sounding the symphonies of Bonn's most famous son during the construction phase of the new Festspielhaus?
It's about two years, which must be bridged. From 2010 to 2012 will be dredged and screwed, then to Bonn's new temple of culture, be ready.
24 months without a world-class concerts can not afford the city. Creative interim solutions are needed. Just as in 1983 when a fire badly damaged the interior of the hall. Without further ado, the city had erected a huge tent with 1,700 seats on the forecourt of the hall.
While the score Mahler's 3rd Concerto Symphony listened, that's quiet as a mouse around. Street theater and Wachsbleiche were closed. On the Sandkaule the lights were switched on the green wave in order to avoid starting noise.
The Beethoven Orchestra may not yet warming to this idea. Spokeswoman Julia Schubert: "A tent is suitable on the acoustic characteristics is not applicable."
Ilona Schmiel, head of the Beethoven Festival, has no fear of the tent - or a "mobile solution," as she calls it. Offer your condition: The tent must be at least 1500 people and the place terklänge Meis may not be swallowed by the walls.
Schmiel asserts: "Our program will be top, as in previous years."

Cologne - Kurt Uhlenbruch, one of the great men of Cologne SPD, is dead on the night of Saturday, the native of Cologne, died at the age of 62 years. The SPD lost a dedicated politician, the Cologne advocate a very respected lawyer who had been particularly committed to the labor law.
Whether the district court, the SPD or in the company of his longtime colleagues in the solicitor Venloerstraße - surfaced repeatedly in recent months the question: How is Kurt Uhlenbruch?
He fared badly. He lay in a ward for palliative medicine, for people with incurable diseases. Kurt Uhlenbruch suffered from pancreatic cancer. Doctors call this illness "the darkest chapter in medicine." No one could help him. Until recently supported by his wife Ursula, who never left his side.
Kurt Uhlenbruch, born 1946, born in Vingst, came in 1966, the year of his baccalaureate, the SPD in this book. Mid-70s, Young Socialist president, in a politically hot time later subdistrict chairman and chairman of the 1987 Cologne SPD. 14 years he remained the boss. If he had won 1999, the internal party ballot against Heugel - maybe he would have become mayor. In 2001 he handed the helm to Jochen Ott. Uhlenbruch sat another for art, culture and integration.

Monday begins the Klinsi Show

Munich - Bayern-EM professionals among our heroes are scarcely recognize their jobs if they get in a few weeks in preparation.
Because as of Monday begins Klinsi show the inhabitants of Munich - and the former national coach makes the subscription-master of the Isar no stone unturned.
In the truest sense of the word: During the summer break has been drilled, hammered, torn down and renovated. The cabin was a completely new face. Klinsmann was the dressing too winding, the players will look right - and he wants to have an eye on everything.
Klinsmann is also in the eyes and ears of every workout to anything - for cameras and microphones also illuminate every last corner of the training area. In the former press Parlor is now set up a high-tech space, where the whole is analyzed - and the professionals will be faced after taking a shower with their mistakes.
 The camera-offensive has another advantage: The Bavarians employees can leave the TV stations out there. In the future, is only censored image material outside. A brawl between as once Bixente Lizarazu and Lothar Matthaeus would thus reach barely to the public.
Even the fans have to adapt to changes. The restaurant inside is closed, then dine in the future, only the 200 employees in its canteen Bavaria.
 As a small consolation for supporters of the ex-coach announced that the units in the first week of the public. However, he has since erstmal only twelve men in training. But no matter: Klinsmann erstmal show itself is enough.
