A New Era Begins
Following the departure of Jürgen Mehrbrei, the organization wasted no time in finding his replacement, filling the position within just four weeks. “And it’s none other than our preferred candidate,” added Carolin Serr, a member of the management team.

He is highly regarded not only as an instrumental teacher but also as a member of the ensemble “Lukas Bruckmeyer and his Bohemian Comrades.”
“I want to focus my efforts on one orchestra initially, and that orchestra is Fautenbach,” Sommer stated.
The appointment of Manuel Sommer represents a new chapter for the Musicverein Fautenbach, bringing fresh energy and musical direction to the ensemble. With his wealth of experience and personal connection to the area, Sommer is poised to lead the orchestra to even greater heights.
