The
Nordkolleg
in Rendsburg is the perfect site for Das GORGG 2008.
It is
located not too far from Rendsberg near the channel connecting
the North Sea and the Baltic Sea (Nord-Ostsee-Kanal). The Nordkolleg
was founded for adult education. They offer a lot of language
courses, mainly German for students from Norway and Sweden. Secondly,
animportant task of Nordkolleg is education in music, mainly classical,
but also jazz. In addition to this, they organize weekends for
15 interested readers to talk in a very private atmosphere with
an author: two of those often-famous guests were Lars Gustafsson
and Günter Grass.
The Nordkolleg is an ensemble of flat brick buildings which surround
a very nice garden. The Kolleg offers a variety of rooms to come
together: a lounge, a room with a bar, rooms in different sizes
to make music - one of them gives space for 150 people and would
allow GORGG's traditional concert and banquet. We could use different
pianos, grand pianos, a small Roland. And, if needed, we could ask
for using instruments and amplifiers of the federal states jazz
orchestra, which often meets here.
In addition Nordkolleg has a great kitchen where the crew would
prepare four meals a day for us.
