Orgue of Mariahilf Church - Munich

Dear Friends
today morning, after having visited the Auer Dult, one of the bigger open air market of the world, in the Mariahilf Church Place here in Munich, I observed that the entrance to the orgue of the church was open. So, I have not hexitate to enter and to reach the balcon of the orgue. With my surprise, the organist of the church welcomed me and appeared happy to reply to my questions about the characteristics and performances of the orgue and, in particular, of the horizontal spanish trumpets. Unfortunately, the list of the registers of the orgue was not available. However, the images that follows show you the main details of the orgue.
Information and images about the Mariahilf Church and the Auer Dult are available under:

Forschungszentrum Garching - Tag der offene Tür

Dear Friends
last Saturday, I visit of some of the Instituts of the Forschungszentrum (Research Centre) of Garching near Munich. The visit was interesting and let me say that the innovation and the technologycal progress should not be seen as something separated from Ethnology, the main centre of interest of our M-Polo Club. In fact, because they form one of the basis of the culture of the peoples. Only because of lack of time I have not had the possibility to visit all the Instituts I desired. In any case, I send you some image of the visit. Any observation from your side is welcomed.

Dürer-Cranach-Holbein

Dear Friends
I visited the exhibition Dürer-Cranach-Holbein at the Hypo Kulturstiftung here in Münich. Let me say that the exhibition is of very high quality, as usual for the exhibitions of the Hypo Kulturstiftung. Impressive are the visages, showing deep internal emotions, of the  persons: Fugger the Rich, Elsbeth Tucher, Charles de Soliers and the Venetian Girl for example, that said artists and other of the same period were able to fix on the portraits for the posterity.
Unfortunately, take images was strongly forbidden, so that I cannot send you images of the paintings. However, some portats you can see under: http://www.hypo-kunsthalle.de/newweb/edch.html
In any case, I invite you again to not miss the occasion to visit this exhibition.
