Threatened, slandered, denigrated and forgotten from all sides: Good old brass band music. Where does the playful horn still blare, 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 near or far.
The rescue of brass music is a scanning of traditional brass 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 club outing, as well as the most beautiful waltz from the spring concert.
A play for all those who have escaped the confines of country life and are freeing themselves from the staid 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: club life.
Zur Rettung der Blasmusik is a co-production of Zirkusquartier Zürich and will celebrate its premiere on November 15.
This event takes place as part of the Nuit du Cirque .
