    GEMEINDENACHRICHTEN AMTSBLATT DER GEMEINDEN BAMMENTAL, WIESENBACH UND GAIBERG Wiesenbach Bammental GAIBERG 58. Jahrgang 17. Mai 2019 Nr. 20 Biddersbachhalle Wiesenbach So, 19.05.19 | 16:00 Uhr Benefizkonzert der Jugendkapelle Wiesenbach EINTRITT FREI um Spenden wird gebeten Jugendkapelle Hit Kids Panoramis Schulchor Der Erlös wird gespendet an: Ambulanter Kinderhospizdienst Schirmherr: Bürgermeister Eric Grabenbauer Schirmherr: Bürgermeister Frank Volk Grußwort des Bürgermeisters Meine sehr geehrten Damen und Herren, liebe Musikfreunde, „Ohne Musik wäre das Leben ein Irrtum“, sagte einst der Philosoph Friedrich Nietzsche. Diese Erkenntnis setzte sich in Wiesenbach bereits vor 60 Jahren durch – im Jahre 1959 wurde der Musikverein gegründet. Seither ist die Mitglieder- zahl von einst 13 Gründungsmitgliedern auf rund 310 angewachsen – das heißt jeder zehnte Wiesenbacher ist Mitglied des Vereins! Ein Teil des Erfolgsrezeptes des Musikvereins Wiesenbach ist sicher die erfolgreiche Jugendarbeit, durch die sich der Verein um musikalisch in- teressierte Kinder und Jugendliche verdient macht. Die breit gefächerten Angebote für die 80 Kinder und Jugendliche reichen von musikalischer Früherziehung mit Blockflöte, über die Instrumentalausbildung bis zur Jugendkapelle und behaupten sich durch ihre Freizeitangebote für junge Menschen im Verein. Neben hohen musikalischen Ansprüchen erfüllt der Musikverein mit seiner Jugendkapelle aber auch wichtige soziale Funkti- onen. Er führt Kinder und Jugendliche verschiedenen Alters im gemein- samen Spiel zusammen. Damit dies gelingen kann, müssen nicht nur die Instrumente aufeinander abgestimmt sein; ein harmonisches Zusammen- spiel erfordert Gemeinschaftsgeist, Verbundenheit und Kameradschaft. In der heutigen Zeit in der Handy`s „den Ton angeben“, ist es aus meiner Sicht sehr erfreulich und auch schon etwas Besonderes, dass das „Selbst- musizieren“ nach wie vor einen hohen Stellenwert hat und sich immer wieder auch junge Menschen dafür motivieren lassen.
