Avital is a highly acclaimed mandolin virtuoso known for expanding the instrument’s repertoire beyond its traditional folk and classical roots.

He is recognized for his dynamic stage presence and innovative approach to the mandolin.

The Martinskirche (St. Martin’s Church) in Grünstadt is a significant late Gothic hall church, completed around 1485-1520. Its construction followed an earlier Romanesque church on the same site. The church features a prominent tower and notable stained-glass windows dating primarily from the 16th century, some attributed to the master craftsman Hans Acker. Throughout its history, the Martinskirche has served as the primary Protestant church for Grünstadt and represents an important example of regional architectural heritage. The interior’s acoustics are considered favorable for chamber music performances due to its hall structure and stone construction. It has been used for concerts periodically in recent years.
