We have no rigid program, no pressure to perform, and no prior knowledge of sheet music is required. We sing a wide mix of whatever comes to mind and spreads good cheer: from well-known folk songs and old hits to catchy pop songs and evergreen classics that everyone knows by heart. The repertoire is shaped by the wishes of the community – here, everyone finds their favorite song. To make sure we always hit the right note and keep the rhythm, we are accompanied by Gabriela Kobilke and Jürgen Eußner. With their ukuleles, the two of them bring not only the right harmony, but also a wonderfully light, almost vacation-like atmosphere to our gatherings. The charming sound of the small string instruments immediately invites everyone to sing along and sway together.
