05.08.12 - Visiting Gernsbach

Take eight cars, fill them with 28 singers, a conductor, a vocal trainer/piano player, a drummer and a little fan club and off we go to Gernsbach. Arriving at our destination after an approximately 2 hours' curvy drive we have to quickly get ourselves into voice with a few songs and check how much room there is for the choreography.

The church service started at 10 o'clock. We could already do 3 songs during the service. After the service there was a short break then we continued with our matinée. We performed for a bit more than an hour showing parts of our Tanzania programme to the community of Gernsbach . Some pieces were performed by small groups or by soloists.

The enthusiastic audience, the majority of which had already been to Tanzania before, infecetd us with the Tanzania-fever prevailing in Gernsbach by telling us many stories thus making us even more curious about our big journey.

After our show we enjoyed a lovely lunch prepared by our hosts doing some talking here and there. Well fed we started on our way back home to Gomaringen.
