Paul Pizzera - Perfect study break on Wednesday evening

Hey guys! :)

After all the studying for PC II we can finally go swimming, enjoy the nice weather and relax....

Unfortunately that's not gonna work - with next week's Culture Presentation Days, German and Russian exam and KM presentation ahead of me this weekend is gonna be a long one with little sleep and a lot of studying. I bet pretty much all of you have at least the same amount of work to do.
Anyway, that's just the way it is - three more weeks and everything is going to be over. But if you need a break between all the studying: Paul Pizzera, a young and talented cabaret artist, is going to play his show "Zu wahr um schön zu sein" next Wednesday evening (June 19th, 19:30) in Werndorf.

If the weather is nice (let's hope for the best!) the event is going to take place outside - otherwise it will be in the "Kulturheim Werndorf".

As you might know I'm a member of the "Kulturteam Werndorf" (which is the organizer of the show in Werndorf), so I'll be there for sure.
Everyone needs breaks, so if you have time feel free to stop by, it's definitely going to be a great and hilarious show.

Until then: Good luck with your studying, see you next week!

Without music, life would be a mistake!

Hey guys! :)

Most of you probably know that I'm a member of my hometown's local orchestra, called "Jugendkapelle Werndorf" (JKW). Every year we have two big concerts - one in December and one in spring.

I'd like to invite y'all to this year's spring concert which is going to be on June 05, 2013. It's going to be something new, special and really big because we, the JKW, are not going to play alone but together with the "Musikverein Wildon".

June 05, 2013

7.30 pm

Kulturheim Werndorf

The program offers something for everyone - modern musical pieces such as "The Lord of the Rings", "The Beauty and the Beast" or "Pirates of the Caribbean", classical music ("Geschichten aus dem Wienerwald"), marches ("The Washington Post") and many other great pieces of music.

Tickets cost 14€ in advance, 19€ at the door. Let me know if you are interested (E-Mail: rauch.juli@gmail.com or text/call me if you have my number) so I can get the tickets for you! :)

If you can't make it on June 05, we are going to play the same concert one week before (May 29) in Wildon.
I'm looking forward to seeing you there! :)

Heinz Marecek - "Das kleine Fest des Lachens"

Hey guys!

First of all: Yayyyy, Christmas holidays! Have fun & enjoy it - I definitely will ;)

Second: No plans for tonight? I’d like to present to you: “Heinz Marecek: Das kleine Fest des Lachens”.

For those of you who have no idea who Heinz Marecek is: He was born in 1945 in Vienna and is an Austrian actor, director and cabaret artist. He started to perfom in 1966 at the "Vienna Ateliertheater". Afterwards he performed at the "Vienna Volksoper" and between 1971 and 1998 at the "Theater in der Josefstadt" (which is the oldest theater of Vienna), where he also directed some of the plays. These days you can see him in a couple of TV shows/movies. I’m pretty sure all of you have heard of the Austrian TV show “Soko Kitzbühel” – he is the one who plays “Hannes Kofler”. Apart from “Soko Kitzbühel” you can see him in “Lindenstraße” (playing Bruno Skabowski), “Der Bockerer” and other TV shows/movies.

But why am I telling you about him? Well, he is coming to Werndorf (if you want to know where/what that is à take a look at my post “Music is what feelings sound like”) tonight at 7.30pm, to read Christmas stories from his book “Das kleine Fest des Lachens”. Doors will be opened at 7pm and tickets are 25€.





Give it a try, I promise it’s definitely worth the money!

Looking forward to seeing you there :)

Music is what feelings sound like!

May I introduce to you – the best local orchestra ever (okay, I admit it, I may be a little bit prejudiced, since I play in it, BUT we are pretty good ;))

As some of you may know, I play the flute in the orchestra of Werndorf. If you have no clue where/what Werndorf is: It's a small village about 20 km south of Graz.

Although we are such a small village, we offer a pretty good culture program - with artists like Peter Simonischek, Stermann & Grissemann, Gernot Kulis, Josef Hader and soon also Heinz Marecek (I will post about this event soon) we have already had quite famous and absolutely amazing people and great events in our village.

Another huge part of our culture program is the "Jugendkapelle Werndorf" - our local orchestra. Here’s the link to our homepage: http://www.jk-werndorf.at

As every year, our Christmas concert is set for the 8th of December, which is the upcoming Saturday – so if you don’t have any plans yet we’d be more than happy to welcome you. The concert starts at 2.30pm and with songs like „Rudolph, the red-nosed reindeer“, „White Christmas“, „Driving home for Christmas“, „Ave Verum Corpus“, „O holy night“ and much more the program offers something for young, old and in between. But it is not only a concert, we are also going to present our Christmas CD - which is the perfect Christmas present for your parents, friends, grandparents and all the other people who love Christmas songs (and let's be honest, who doesn't? ;))
