Emotional sounds and goosebumps: music band inspires in Lengfurt!

On October 30, 2025, the Triefenstein Hall was transformed into a musical gem when the Lengfurt music band presented its annual concert under the motto “Interior Views”. Around 500 visitors came to experience the emotional journey through the world of music. Board member Andreas Emmert and the moderators welcomed the audience and explained the chosen motto, which focused on human feelings. Right from the start, the mood was “takeaway” when the first melody sounded: Wagner’s “Entry into the Wartburg” from the opera “Tannhäuser”.

The second title of the evening, “Excalibur” by José A. Pina, took the audience into the legendary world of King Arthur. A special highlight was “Melancholy Moment” by the composer Hubert Hoche, who was there himself and was enthusiastic about his lively interpretation. This made the piece an extremely impressive experience for the orchestra and the audience.

Emotional highlights

The emotional highlight of the first half of the concert was definitely the performance of “Les Misérables” by Claude-Michel Schönberg. This play addresses fundamental human emotions such as hope, despair, duty, mercy, love and revenge, as well as the turbulent period during the French Revolution. Here the audience became noticeably quiet; many held their breath.

The second half of the concert had just as much to offer. After a short break, the band started with well-known melodies from the films “Rocky IV”, “Beauty and the Beast” and “Das Boot”. These pieces invited listeners on an emotional roller coaster ride that ranged from doubt, sadness and love to trust, fear and anxiety. The crowning finale was the classic “Don’t stop me now” by Queen, which delighted the audience in an exhilarating conclusion.

A special and emotional experience was the encore “Sound of Silence”, which was dedicated to the late board member Bruno Hock. Many spectators were left with tears in their eyes and showed how powerfully music can affect human feelings.

Culture in context

The recent festival “Brücken 16” in Neuberg Abbey in Austria also showed that music can build a bridge. This festival focused on new music and contemporary art. It offered a space for innovative sounds and the presentation of works that could trigger similar emotions to those at the concert in Lengfurt. Among other things, the “mürz winds” orchestra performed two works by Hubert Hoche, which represent cultural diversity and creative expression in brass music.

The audience was even able to actively participate in the performance of “Back from the other side,” which was particularly well received. Hoche praised the performing musicians and the conductor Michael Koller for their remarkable performance. Musical projects of this kind not only provide insights into contemporary art, but also bring people together - similar to the emotional concert evening in Lengfurt, where music was perceived as a universal language.

Overall, such events not only represent the fine art of making music, but also the communal experience that connects people and promotes cultural exchange. Whether in the Triefenstein Hall or in Neuberg Abbey – the passion for music unites us all, no matter where we come from.
