Maria, a young novice, lives isolated in a monastery near Salzburg. Music is her greatest passion, but the nuns fail to understand it.

Press excerpts
Banater Zeitung: Was bleibt, ist die Musik [What is left is music] by Balthasar Waitz, June 17th 2009
"A major project has been transformed into an exquisite event. Teh German Theatre has made teh best musical choice, the premiere offering the chance to meet again with Peter Oschanitzky, born in Timişoara, lead conductor of the National Opera in Osijek (Croatia) since 1993, who conducted an orchestra formed by a number of talented musicians from the German Theatre and the National Opera of Timişoara, thus shining light upon the musical gems of this show. (...) The show successfully combines the musical and theatrical performances, thanks to a large number of guests gathered for this project, bus especially thanks to the performance of the German Theatre team."
