On July 4th, 2017, the Phorms music department and the Friends of Phorms e.

Afterwards, Mrs. Annie Gicquel, piano professor emeritus from the Musikhochschule Nürnberg, impressed the audience with the performance of the famous Kreisleriana op.16 by Robert Schumann on the beautiful Schimmel grand piano in the elegant Music hall at the Phorms Munich campus.

Selected student soloists such as Hugo Schreck, piano, Clara Großerichter, piano and Franziska Möhringer, violoncello presented other works by Robert Schumann. The year 3 &4 students of the Primary Choir were joined by Mrs. Gicquel on the piano singing “Wenn ich ein Vöglein wär”, op.43, Nr.1 and the beautiful evening round “Abendstille”.

All performances were well received and appreciated by an enthusiastic audience. A big thank you goes to Annie Gicquel and all performers for offering their talent to support the Friends of Phorms orgaisation.
