"THE SOUND OF LOTTIMUSIC"
"The hills are alive with the sound of Lottimusic"...
Once upon a time, there was a handsome Belgian Baron named Helmut Lotti. He often travelled from country to country bringing joy and happiness into the lives of others with his songs.
For a few weeks one summer, Helmut was invited to stay with an old famiy friend who lived in beautiful Saltzburg, Austria. His friend was a widowed gentleman with seven children.
Helmut was amazed by the grand estate of his Austrian friend. It was a large yellow castle tucked away amid lush, green trees. It was a breathtaking sight. As Helmut approached the castle, he began to happily sing "You've Got A Friend" and when he finally reached the door, he took a deep breath and smiled. He was glad to be there and was looking forward to seeing his friend and finally meeting the children.
After having dinner with the family, Helmut went upstairs and unpacked his luggage bag and changed into a more comfortable suit for the evening. On his way back downstairs, he overheard the family talking in the parlour. What he heard troubled him deeply...the children were telling their father that they were lonely and bored and that they wished that their lives could be happier.
Helmut was determined to cheer the children up somehow...he was determined to bring happiness into their lives again!
A few days later, while out sightseeing with the children, he came upon an open green meadow nestled between the majestic peaks and vistas of the Austrian Alps. Sitting down with them on that grassy area, he began to play his guitar and sing some lively songs to them. Soon, the children were smiling and giggling. They joined in and were singing along with him to "Tiribomba", "Tiny Hands, Tiny Feet", "Don't Cry Little Child", "Kalinka" and "Funiculi Funicula".
The children were happy and loved Helmut.
Everyday, Helmut would sing for the children and soon their father also became interested in his singing and encouraged Helmut to enter the Saltzburg Folk Festival...
At the festival, there were other talented competitors...
Each competitor received an applause from the audience. When Helmut appeared on the stage, everyone became silent and all eyes were on him as he began to sing "All My Life"...
For that song, he received a standing ovation and a great applause! He took a gracious bow. He had not only won first place at the festival, but he had also won the hearts of the people of Saltzburg!
Soon everyone in Austria heard the magical voice of Helmut and were impressed.
"The Sound Of Lottimusic" can be heard all over the world. Helmut is now spreading the joy of his music to the people of Russia....where he will surely win more hearts!
The hills EVERYWHERE are coming alive with the sound of Lottimusic!
This story was just for fun!
