Welcome

De Tiroler Blaaskapel was founded in 1979. At the beginning there were only four members, who practiced at the greengrocery department of a local supermarket. Soon the number of musicians increased and the orchestra was able to play a nice piece of music.

Our first uniforms were self made. At the occasion of our 15th anniversary, the orchestra obtained original costumes from the south of Germany.

At the moment the orchestra consists of 22 enthusiastic musicians, playing Egerlander/Bohemian and Czech folk music. Each year we take part in the Brass Band Contest in Muntendam.{phocagallery view=category|categoryid=2|imageid=54|float=right|type=2} We often perform in oap-homes, at fairs, shopping centres and markets and at so-called coffee-concerts. We do not perform in The Netherlands only, but also regularly in Germany. And of course we offer a full night''s programme of music.

At the occasion of our 20th anniversary, we produced our first CD. On 18 September, 2004 we celebrated our 25th anniversary. There was a big audience who enjoyed our music. In addition, people had fun looking at old pictures and watching old movies.

We hope you will enjoy our music.
