New organ at the Angela-Merici-Gymnasium: A sound symbol for the community!
trier. On October 2, a new organ was inaugurated in the Angela-Merici-Gymnasium, which not only enriches the musical offer, but also represents an important moment in the history of the school. In a solemn snack, students, teachers and parents gathered to celebrate the inauguration of the instrument in the school chapel. The organ is a gift from the couple Albert and Brigitte Justen from Gutweiler, who want to support the musical and spiritual training of the students with this generous gesture.
In his speech, director Mario Zeck emphasized the community behind this project. The implementation of the organ required the cooperation between many supporters, including parents, alumni and sponsors. "In times of resource shortage," says Zeck, "it is crucial that we are committed to cultural and spiritual values." This new organ will not only be a central element in future services, but also offer the possibility that the students will learn the game on this impressive instrument.community and gratitude
The inauguration of the organ was led by brother Gregor Eschenbacher from the St. Matthias Abbey, who is also one of the supporters. He took over the consecration and emphasized the importance of the instrument for the Catholic school profile: "The new organ not only brings sound to our chapel, it is also a symbol of community and gratitude," he said. The organ, which was originally built in 1988 and modernized in 2003, survived well in its previous history. According to an expert opinion from the cathedral organist Josef Still, she has a "beautiful, mild sound image". No pests have harmed the instrument, and thorough cleaning in the restoration will preserve their sound quality.
The costs for the move of such an instrument are considerable and often amount to five -digit amounts. A large number of donations and foundations made it possible to implement this project. In addition to the Justens, Helga Eschenbacher and her son Brother Gregor were mentioned, who covered a large part of the costs. The “Faith” Foundation of the Diocese of Trier, represented by Thomas Theis, as well as the couple Jolanda and Torsten Krause, who did interim financing, were also recognized by Zeck. "Your commitment shows how important it is for our community to invest in the future," continued the director.
This new organ will not only enrich the musical life at the Angela-Merici-Gymnasium, but also help to strengthen the school's spiritual dimension. A clear sign of the value that the school community places on musical and spiritual aspects. Pupils now have the opportunity to develop musically and to learn the power of music that can play an important role in their lives.
The inauguration was perceived by many of those present as a moving moment that demonstrated the deep connection of the community with their school culture. At a time when many schools are fighting with financial challenges, the courage and determination of the community show how significant initiatives are in cultural values. This gives hope that the Angela-Merici-Gymnasium will continue to be a place of learning, music and spirituality in the future.
The entire school community looks at the musical future with pleasure, because the organ will not only be a new sound, but also a source of inspiration and community love. Pupils, teachers and parents can come together to celebrate the beauty of music and experience what it means to be part of such a community.
