With organ builder Fröhlich: Musical adventures for kids in Diestedde!
On May 19, 2025, the St. Nicholas Church in Diestedde invites you to a special organ concert. The organ builder Friedhelm Bruns, known as the organ builder Fröhlich, will work in cooperation with the cantor Dr. Elena Potthast-Borisovets will present an eventful program. This concert is part of the Liesborn Museum Concerts and is aimed specifically at primary school children in order to introduce them to the fascinating world of the organ.
In a concert lasting about an hour, Fröhlich, who comes from Münster, will not only explain to the young listeners how the organ works, but will also actively involve them in what is happening. With his blue dungarees and a suitcase full of surprises as well as an organ pipe called “Hildegard”, he will convey the special features of his instrument in a playful way. Children can use their feet and balloons to accompany the music, which underlines the interactivity of the concert.
Interactive musical adventure trip
As part of this unique experience, the principle of sound creation using miniature whistles is clearly demonstrated. The goal of this project is to get children excited about classical organ music in the long term. A musical sample of the evening will be the piece “Echoes of Joy”, which will certainly reach many of the little listeners’ hearts.
Jörg Lopper, the artistic director of the museum concerts, emphasizes the importance of such events in promoting an early interest in music in children. The mix of information and interaction creates a bridge to classical music, which is often considered difficult to access.
Those interested can find additional information and details about current abbey culture events on the website Abbey concerts.
The concert in Diestedde not only offers a musical highlight, but also a valuable opportunity to sensitize children to the traditional sounds of the organ and to awaken their curiosity for music. Whether alone or as part of school activities, the afternoon offers the chance for an unforgettable experience.
