The Fortune Dragon on the Mystery Mountain
What a story! A coal mining waste dump between Herten and Recklinghausen is being recultivated to become a “mystery mountain” for the recreation of mankind. And up to its top leads a beautiful dragon bridge as if taken from a fairy tale – magically designed vibration free by GERB Engineers from Essen.

German Technology Secures Top Comfort in the Highest Tower of Qatar
The Doha Sport City Tower mastered its first major test with excellence during the so far largest, recently completed Asian Games. Even from far away people could see the Olympic Flame burning at the top of the new highest point of Qatar. Now the owner of the tower is eager to trim the inside of his 300 m high show piece to the highest possible luxury level, where German technology provides the necessary preconditions for this purpose.

A Thirteen Million Euro Investment in Basel / Switzerland
Gentle, nearly whispering should be the sound of the piano when playing Bach’s d-Moll-concert BWV 1052. This requires a first class and well conducted orchestra and a sensitive pianist as well as a top class acoustic. The old concert hall in the City Casino of Basel belongs with its acoustic to the ten finest concert halls in the world. Since the beginning of this concert season it has finally also become difficult to clearly identify a recording of a concert being performed there by the philharmonic orchestra of Basel. The simple reason is that there is now no more rumbling noise during such recordings as a result of a thirteen million Euro investment.
