The great folk poet Ludwig Thoma wrote his lyrical Bavarian Christmas story in 1916 on his beloved "Tuften" above Tegernsee.
The verses tell the biblical tale in a simple and therefore heart-warming way, as it was probably heard for generations on Christmas Eve in the farmhouse parlors.
Memories come flooding back: of a warm parlor, the smell of cookies, the security of childhood.
The Munich priest Rainer Maria Schießler , who is known far beyond the city limits, will take on these lyrical Bavarian verses and present this Christmas legend in his own authentic way.
He will be accompanied by the "Familienmusik Elisabeth Rehm", who will perform the original Christmas Eve songs by Ludwig Thoma.
