The Gymnasium Geretsried , or GymGer for short , is a high school in Geretsried , a town in the Upper Bavarian district of Bad Tölz-Wolfratshausen .

history

The Geretsried grammar school began teaching at the beginning of the 1971/72 school year as part of a cooperative comprehensive school . The close cooperation with the Realschule and Hauptschule lasted until 1993. Since then, the Geretsried Gymnasium has been an independent school, which is housed with the also independent Realschule in a shared building on Adalbert-Stifter-Straße. In 2012, the Munich office of Drescher + Kubina Architects was awarded the contract to plan the extension for ten more classrooms, the IT center and the break room extension. The pilot phase concept Mittelstufe Plus has been offered or implemented since the 2015/16 school year . At the beginning of the 2018/19 school year, Christoph Strödecke replaced Hermann Deger, who had been director since 2007. The grammar school has been completely renovated since mid-2016. The construction work should be completed in 2024.

Big Band

In 1982 the music teacher and conductor Horia-Dinu "Cico" Nicolaescù (born July 2, 1941 in Craiova ), who came from Romania and was transferred to grammar school in 1981, founded a big band at the school. This released the CD album with the label Audioson with the title Siente el chico , which was made possible by the sponsorship award in the competition " Jugend jazzt 2003". The album was created in cooperation with the Marktoberdorf Music Academy, the Bavarian Music Council and the Bavarian Jazz Institute Regensburg.

Nicolaescù and the Big Band maintained musical exchange with his home country through trips and concerts from 1992 to 2004, where they could be seen, for example, in 1998 at the first South East Jazz Festival in Bucharest in 1998 or in 2003 in the “George Enescu” hall of the University of Bucharest . and as the only Bavarian amateur ensemble at the Expo 2000 in Hanover . The jazz musician Stephanie Lottermoser began her musical career in the big band .

Nicolaescù retired in 2006. Musicians for Nicolaescù's Cico Jazz Orchestra (CJO), with whom he plays in Romania, among others, emerge from the big band line-up to this day . The high school big band he founded is also still active under the direction of Alfred Menzinger.

Nepal project

With the help of the Nepal initiative Schongau, the grammar school began a partnership with the Lophelling Boarding School in Manang , Annapurna region, which was founded in 1999 and is located at 3,400 meters above sea level . In addition to the support with relief supplies for Tibetan refugees, the school is regularly visited by groups of students from the Geretsrieder Gymnasium.
