Baron Michael von Ketteler, a German nobleman, said: “Very good, and very impressive. I was very impressed by the artistic value, the presentation, and the costumes. The whole thing was an outstanding event, an outstanding performance. We really enjoyed it.”
“The orchestra was great, the music was great, and the dancing impressed me greatly. It’s very artistic, but also very fluid, very close to the music, and very connected,” said Ulf Kletzin, a university professor.
Eva Lück-Beumler, an association head, said: “What particularly impressed me were the stories themselves, these little stories, and that they're explained beforehand. The interplay between deity and humanity also impresses me greatly. And also the depiction, accompanied by the [backdrop], of the actors jumping off the stage and then reappearing on screen.”
“We should remember our divine origins, and that we are not here on this earth just to enjoy ourselves, but that we will return to our homeland,” said Michael Lauterbach, a business owner.
Baron von Ketteler said: “I think it's impressive, and it's part of the credibility of standing by and continuing to maintain this tradition. It's important to stand by this tradition. We're talking about hundreds, thousands of years. If we don't tell our children and grandchildren about this, then eventually no one will know it anymore.”
“It’s very important, if the old tradition, no matter which country it comes from, is forgotten or overshadowed by today's society, that's really sad. We should preserve the old culture, no matter which country it comes from, because ancient culture is also very beautiful,” said Danilo Mittrach, a business owner.
