Zirkusquartier Zürich

Threatened, slandered, denigrated and forgotten from all sides: Good old brass band music. Where does the playful horn still sound, where can you still hear the lovely tuba? Where do the good trombones still blare? Three performers with brass band experience set out to save the music. They haven't thought about exactly how beforehand, but while they're here, they want to save something, whether it's near or far. Saving brass band music is a sampling of traditional brass band music, the urban/rural divide and club life through the ages. The poetry of the protocol is honored, the marching formation, the report of the association excursion, as well as the most beautiful waltz from the spring concert. A play for all those who have escaped the confines of country life, who have freed themselves from the bourgeois traditions of the city and at the same time for those for whom this part of the community is important. A humorous treatment of an alpine passion: associational life. Translated with DeepL.com (free version)
