The Academic-Musical Association AMV Fridericiana Erlangen (short: "Fridericiana") is a musical, non-colored, but colored (pink-white), non-striking student association at the Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg . It was founded on December 14, 1878 as the “Erlangen Student Choir” and belongs to the umbrella organization Sondershäuser Verband (SV) .

Orientation and fields of activity

The AMV Fridericiana is non-partisan and non-denominational and is open to male students of various origins and creeds interested in music. Participation in one of the artistic groups is mandatory. The association maintains a choir , chamber music ensembles , a rock band and a big band, as well as a theater group . Each semester , the groups publicly perform what has been rehearsed in the city and the surrounding area. The theater group in particular receives regular press coverage; the criticism in the culture section of the Erlanger Nachrichten of February 2, 2013 closes: "For anyone who is not afraid of food for thought (...) a must.", the one of July 16, 2013: "There is no better way for amateur theater."

Other regular events include lectures, excursions, annual hikes in Franconian Switzerland , conventions , pubs , foundation festivals and St. Thomas's Day .

Contacts to other connections exist both within the SV umbrella association and to the school and student associations in the greater Erlangen-Nürnberg-Fürth area.

history

The former house of the Fridericiana student union served as a school for nurses, so-called "brown sisters", during the Third Reich.

Surname

The connection was established on December 14, 1878 as the "Studentengesangverein (StGV) Erlangen im SV", initially at a deliberate distance from the conventional corporations: You didn't wear any colors, didn't have a circle and didn't fight. "Even the non-corporates and the non-beating student associations could not or did not want to evade the student code of honor and its consequences, so that many introduced student fencing at least as an option, for example the AMV Fridericiana Erlangen." Singer connection in the SV ”. In the 1930s the origins were clearly distant; as principles were u. a. Called "unconditional satisfaction" and "physical training". Under pressure from the NSDAP , the Fridericiana Erlangen, which had owned Spardorfer Str. 32 (later Marienhospital) since 1906, was dissolved on January 31, 1936. In 1949, the old gentlemen re-founded the "Studentengesangverein Erlangen (Academic Glee-Club Fridericiana Erlangen)", which was also unofficially called the "Fridericiana Student Association". In 1951 it became the "Academic Singing Association (AGV) Erlangen im SV", and in 1966 the "Academic-Musical Association Fridericiana Erlangen im SV".

Development before 1914

As the first male student choir ( there were no female students in Erlangen when it was founded), founded by members of the Academic Choral Societies in Munich who were studying in Erlangen and, above all, Würzburg together with other Erlangen students, the club enjoyed strong growth up to the turn of the century. In 1901 it was the numerically strongest student corporation in Erlangen. Of the approximately 1200 Erlangen students around 1905, almost 5 percent were members of the student choir; in the winter semester of 1908/09 the club had 100 members. As the only student corporation, the Fridericiana organized a ball with the participation of the Erlangen Society. Around 500 formal invitations were sent to “all academics in Erlangen, senior civil servants, professors, doctors, officers, etc.”. The association’s “musical performances and festivities” exerted “a great attraction on the academic and non-academic world of Erlangen and the surrounding area” . The Fridericiana was well networked with the Erlangen society through its old rule, which in 1906 even earned it a short visit from the Bavarian Crown Prince Ludwig in one of its constants on the occasion of the South German Canal Day .

In 1897 the “Zur Schöne Aussicht” inn in nearby Rathsberg became the ex-pub of the student choir.

The local “Schottersmühle” in Franconian Switzerland, 40 kilometers away, was visited so often that it was in a hiking guide with the words “lovely summer resort and restaurant (specialty pancakes). Stand quarters of the Erlangen student choir ”.

In the Spardorfer Straße 32, the association had its first fraternity house since 1906 with a large ballroom, bowling alley and caretaker's apartment. The house was not only shown on postcards used internally by the association, but - together with the Ludwigsbrücke, which is about 300 m away - also on freely available maps. The house was lost when the Fridericiana was dissolved in 1936 and was vacated on May 13, 1937. The building was demolished in 1994.

Trivia

The circle was created around 1883 when the AMV Fridericiana Erlangen was still called the Erlangen student choir. When in 1923 they wanted to give themselves a more typical name, Skaldia, Stauffia and Fridericiana were available. The decision was made in favor of the latter because from the long-standing circle next to the “E” (for “ Erlangen ”) an “F” (for “Fridericiana”) could also be read. (The letters "v", "c" and "f" (for Latin "vivat, crescat, floreat", "she live, grow and bloom") are assigned to the appendage of the circle .)
