Lustige Orgelmusik zu Karneval in Maria Laach

Apr 24, 2026

Maria Laach

This time he starts with a "Carmen" fantasy by Lemare, which includes all the important and beloved themes from the Bizet opera - especially the Torero march. This year, as the date clearly indicates, this Saturday coincides with Valentine's Day. Therefore, Krahforst builds on improvisations over older and more current Carnival songs and, for the first time, also includes organ paraphrases of love songs from the rock music genre (Richard Marx "Right here waiting", Metallica "Nothing else matters", BAP "Do kanns zaubere" and Judy Garland "Somewhere over the rainbow" in the beautiful jazz version by Keith Jarrett). 
In addition to jazz standards like "Tea for two" and the "Pink Panther," the cheerful overture to "The Thieving Magpie" by Rossini will conclude in a unique organ version. 

The captivating, entertaining, and colorful program lasts 45 minutes exceptionally; admission is free; a collection will be taken at the end.

Warm invitation!

Fahrt mit dem Vulkan-Expreß
Apr 19, 2026 - May 1, 2026

A trip with the Brohltalbahn is more than just a train ride. It is pure everyday deceleration, a true experience of technology and nature. It brings the volcanic region of Laacher See with its unique volcanic landscape to life and gives a sense of the "effort" it takes the locomotives to overcome around 400 meters in altitude between the Rhine and Eifel. Step on board and experience a unique narrow-gauge railway in the attractive landscape of the Eastern Eifel!
