In over 150 years of courageous operations, the German Maritime Search and Rescue Service (DGzRS) has rescued over 81,000 people from distress situations at sea or other dangers. In their anniversary year, the sea rescuers will deploy some 60 rescue units in the Baltic and North Sea – 24/7 and in all weathers. It stands to reason, therefore, that the historical date of foundation in 1865 deserves to be celebrated in style, and when better than on the occasion of the 150th anniversary of the DGzRS in its home city of Bremen. The Deutsche Kammer­philharmonie Bremen gladly took up this cause and devised a bold programme of sea-related compositions by Reger, Mendelssohn and Wagner for this special occasion. And to ensure there is something to suit all tastes, the orchestra has invited guests who have already enraptured the ›Summer in Lesmona‹ audience on two occasions. ›Tsuumi Sound System‹ returns to Bremen! In their time-honoured cross-over with the musicians of The Deutsche Kammer­philharmonie Bremen they will cause the musical waves to surge. In their 2015 anniversary year, The Deutsche Kammer­philharmonie Bremen is the honorary ›ambassador‹ of the sea rescuers. This way, the dedicated musicians are supporting the equally dedicated work of the sea rescuers, who continue to be funded exclusively through voluntary contributions and donations, as international ambassadors.
