Shock: Leipzig rejects both cantor candidates
mainAfter deliberating for months over the rival merits of Clemens Flämig of Dresden and Markus Teutschbein from Basel, the process was stopped this morning and both candidates were told they had failed.
Instead, the city will now instal interim cantor Gotthold Schwarz, a local man, in the position once held by J S Bach.

Well, no one needs to be shocked. It’s a good decision and we have more urgent issues in the world to be shocked about… Just the 2 cents of a Leipzig inhabitant.
Who is shocked?
