Richard Bargel inspires in the Vringstreff: Music as a healing of the soul

Vringstreff, Köln, Deutschland - in the heart of the Severinsviertel, where community and creativity meet, an extraordinary reading recently took place. The well -known Cologne author and musician Richard Bargel, who enchanted an enthusiastic audience in the Vringstreff with his striking blues, not only shared his music, but also moving stories from his life. The Vringstreff, which receives the Diakonia donation of the Cologne Church Association this year, is a place where people with different backgrounds come together. For every donation that is collected up to 100,000 euros, the church association doubles this - a strong sign of the importance of this special place, as Bargel emphasized, which intimate talked about his childhood and revealed the healing power of music. The reading offered a mixture of moving memories and rousing music, including pieces from his new album "Dead Slow Stampede", and left a lasting impression among those present. As Bargel explained, the Vringstreff is not just a meeting point, but a space of respect and the help where everyone is welcome to enjoy a meal for little money and make social contacts, which is an important change for many people.

Farewell to Wolli Anton

In the middle of these positive vibrations, however, the Vringstreff mourns a special person: Wolfgang "Wolli" Anton died. As a long -time friend and supporter, he always enriched the community with a smile and his Cologne sounds. Special moments such as the appearances of the Cologne triumvirate and the benefit concert "Jeneratione - Live" with Björn Heuser remained unforgettable. Even if the exact time of its first connection to the Vringstreff is unclear, its legacy remains alive. His commitment to people and his helpful way are painfully missed. Against the background of his last project, a making-of video for the donation poster campaign, his great passion for music and community becomes clear. How the board of the Vringstreff, Hans Mörtter, aptly formulated: "Sleep well wolli, you are preceded in the day, when it is not about life and death, as is like another, we see each other, young." The loss of Wolli Anton is not only a loss for the Vringstreff, but also for everyone who was lucky enough to know him.

The connection of these two events - the inspiring reading by Richard Bargel and the farewell to Wolli Anton - illustrates the importance of the Vringstreff as a cultural and human center in Cologne.
