10 days of music of the Studenten-Symphonie-Orchester Marburg in the
garden of paradise "Hellenikon Idyllion"
under the direction of Alois Springer.
Alois Springer about the stay of the SSO Marburg:
"It is seldom when dreams come true and stay dreams yet.
One of my dreams were to make music in the nature and in the daily life in a community of like-minded people, and to experience in a symbiose of sun, water, air and movement, freed of conventional constraints, as individuel person, in chamber music groups und in the big sound of an symphonique orchestra of 60 musicians.
Andreas Drekis, founder and director of "Hellenikon Idyllion", gave to me and to the
Studenten-Symphonie-Orchester Marburg
the unique chance to fulfill this dream, not only during 10 days, but also with the prospect of having found a home in Greece at this special place on earth "Hellenikon Idyllion".
In this spirit, I rest grateful connected to "Hellenikon Idyllion" .
