Summer Concert Series will continue July 18th at 6:30pm with the German Brass Band! Located in south-central Pennsylvania, the group was organized in 1985 so that we could entertain as a typical German brass band. We’re all volunteers, dedicated to bringing you good music, good fun, and Gemütlichkeit.
The band plays mainly in the styles of Egerland, Bohemia, Bavaria, and Tirol, with an authentic sound of the best known German and Austrian Blasmusik bands. These are the bands that play regularly at various Oktoberfests — and the Shippensburg German Band plays the same loved tunes: rolling beer-drinking songs, traditional melodies, and lively polkas and waltzes
This is the type of music that gets you to clap your hands, sing along, and dance to the traditional folk tunes usually presented at German festivals — Music that lifts the soul and defines Gemütlichkeit! This a free event! The German Brass Band will be performing at the outdoor amphitheater. Please bring your own chair if you intend to sit in the amphitheater seating area.
