The music corps of the mountain town of Schneeberg is celebrating its 60th anniversary this year – and also at our festival. The orchestra from the neighboring town <\/strong>has been a guarantee for party atmosphere in the brass band arena for years. For the twelfth time, they will be performing modern brass music at the European Brass Music Festival. The band also interprets rock songs on electric and bass guitar and ensures that no listener can remain seated.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

Founded in 1965 as a small sports band, in 1975 the orchestra, which had grown considerably in numbers in the meantime, was awarded the honorary title “Musikkorps der Bergstadt Schneeberg” by the Schneeberg town council – on the occasion of its 10th anniversary and because of the quality it had achieved. In 2001, the Saxon State Association of Miners’, Metallurgical and Miners’ Associations named the music corps the “Saxon State Mining Music Corps”.<\/p>\n\n

The repertoire of the currently 65 active musicians includes not only the cultivation of mountain music, but also a wide variety of event projects in the entertainment sector with music ranging from big band sound and operetta to Bohemian brass music, but also rock and pop. Symphonic wind music in churches and concert halls is also of great importance to the orchestra.<\/p>\n\n

Undoubtedly the greatest highlight of the orchestra’s activities is the program they put together themselves at the Gewandhaus in Leipzig entitled “Bergmannsweihnacht” (Miners’ Christmas) – which takes place in front of a sold-out audience every time.<\/p>\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n

Concert tours have taken the orchestra to the Czech Republic, France, Hungary and Japan, as well as appearances throughout Germany.<\/p>\n\n

The association has been successfully training its own young musicians for years, and young musicians are increasingly shaping the image of the music corps.<\/p>\n\n
