comment to the concert in Bad Häring Marion When the late summer comes, the time comes for the concert of the Police Band in Bad Häring Tirol. If you do not know what's going on, one could quite scared to ask why suddenly so many police cars are in place. But who knows, is looking forward to a wonderful long periods at a concert evening.
In contrast to the brass bands of the police and the Federal Police in Bavaria has it in Tirol still to be done with "real" police officers who are in the police service and are exempt only for the samples and disengagement of the Police Band from the service. As it is almost surprising that the ensemble of 46 musicians and 4 musicians (again, mostly woodwind property) exists. And there are so many that the concert had to be held on a warm summer evening at the Kursaal, because on the outdoor stage was not enough space.
was traditionally the concert with the "March of the Tyrolean police opened. This was followed by a longer greeting various personalities from politics and the police before the police proceed with the concert music program and bring their solidarity with the citizens could express.
"high Heidecksburg" is really a march, the brass band every friend knows. But the police music Tirol has managed to play him as one hears it often. The 6 French horn players certainly had a good laugh, they play not only had to look-up, but an interesting side theme could be the best and sometimes also responsible for the main melody was. And who has ever experienced, to play the oboe the objections?
The presentation of the concert was, as in previous years, the Drum Major Mark Schiffer. The "party atmosphere", the 400 rules for conductor and drum major following, he maintains his impressive stature and his beard. And that he also musically a fixed size, was the awarding of the Medal of Merit in silver. In the music district of Innsbruck-city, it is responsible for ensuring that the marching bands rehearse properly with them, studied a show elements and also acts as adjudicator.
And he gave the audience the overture from Carmen the nice comparison, but that the piece contains a few notes, but this jump. Also the subsequent fast polka "On the Hunt" by Johann Strauss weathered the musicians well before the audience with a concert waltz into the world of the UFA film kidnapped.
If the name Ralf Benatzky conjures up immediately to the White Horse Inn. But that it was at the tender age of 5 songs composed and later in Munich led a cabaret, I was at least new. And thus containing the potpourri of Hans-Joachim Rhinehart, the police music Tirol hung up, not just melodies from the heart-pain and kitsch, but also some jazz sounds.
versatile they are, the police musicians. The fact that someone plays the clarinet and saxophone, is yes nothing special. However, the combination of clarinet, oboe and electric bass is certainly not as often. And some musicians have changed during the concert once the instrument and also the place - as the piece just asked.
And loose it's also true for the ladies and gentlemen in blue with her musical director Werner Eberl, who is the only one, a white shirt. And so the drum major may also announce for the "String of Pearls" by Glenn Miller of the Police Band in Tirol Glen Eberl ... .. Whether Werner Glen, you see it in him that makes him the joy of musical direction. He thanks and praises his musicians to longer pieces first before he turns to the audience and with a radiant Face receives the applause. It also makes listening fun, and the police music Tirol has long been my role model for the Bavarian sound of pearls.
that was released after four encores, the orchestra in the closing time is certainly a sign that I am not alone with my thoughts.
"to Mornings at half seven" was one of those add-ons that had a real spine-potential. The 4 wings horns, which began playing solo, really tender and soft as if to wake up at that early hour still no one. And when later the 6 trumpets latches, no one was roughly out of bed, but it sounded almost like Christmas. Simply wonderful!
The last encore was finally home game since the baton was passed to the conductor of the band Bad Häring Knapp. This all went smoothly and did not end as tragic as in the past conductor of which we have told the drum major, who pierced with his baton namely the foot and eventually died from blood poisoning. ... Unfortunately, this time
was no dance routine as in previous years. But still it was another great, musically varied tour of police to be touched.
