Songs of jesus and mary
On the one hand entertaining, on the other hand also deep and cryptic, it happened in the gobweinsteiner scheffel-gasthof. 20 guests came to experience the forchheim dialect poet reinhold schmitt with his accordion. The evening was organized by the gobweinsteiner pilgrimage museum and the volkshochschule of the district of forchheim.
For his songs, schmitt reaches right into the heart of life and what is casually called everyday life. At the same time, schmitt's texts are full of biblical references. Sometimes it seems as if adam and eva or the holy family live right next door – under the inconspicuous names of muller, meier or schmitt.

Among the books he has written, for example, are "selicha zeidn and "nto the basement.
The participation of the audience was definitely desired by schmitt. You were allowed to sing along with the rhymes or add your own thoughts to the poems. The audience made ample use of this. It was a pleasant evening.
