I’m not sure about the exclusivity of “food of love” but what would we be without music? So – play on, give me excess of it!
As we should currently experience live music only outside and not in indoor-venues, here are three examples with completely different styles of music.

This colourful group, called the Pantoffelgugge, are the musical troupe of a local carnival club. They have their big moments during the carnival season in winter but they take part in other local traditions. This picture was taken a few years ago at our local spring parade. Their style of music is quite unique, this is how the English wikipedia describes it: “It is a strongly rhythmic music of distinctive style played with brass instruments, pipes and drums. Although melodies remain clearly recognizable, they are at times played “off-key”, intentionally and often quite skillfully. Driven by a dominant rhythm section, the music sounds twisted and thrilling, very danceable and perfect for spontaneous street concerts during the “wild days” of Carnival.”


When on a visit to a local small lake last autumn the atmosphere was magically transformed by the eerie and very beautiful notes coming from this man playing his pan flute. I took the picture from the opposite bank.

Quite contrary, this car number plate from Croatia seems to have a rather disrespectful opinion about the driver of its vehicle.

The Ragtag Daily Prompt: Music
The seal of approval by the German choir association awarded to nursery schools which excel in music education. It reads: We like to sing!
A verse of a well-known and well-liked children’s song, sung by children waiting for St Nicolas:
The verse is part of a mural on the side of the Hornbacher Steinhäusel in a village in the Odenwald. The rest of the description reads:
“- and those who don’t know any better and don’t believe it should come with us to the Krähberg, to the proper Steinhäusel, to experience St Nicolas’ evening with the village youths, which is happening every year.”
