Munich Meistersingers Marches and Drinking Songs of Germany

The music presented in this compilation from Southeast Germany focuses on the traditional music heard at the large community beer halls that are indigenous to this region of Germany. At these popular festivals, large steins of beer are served along with local fare and the entire hall is permeated with song and dance by men and women wearing the traditional Bavarian garb. As the beer flows the music becomes merrier. This authentic recording of Bavarian polkas, marches and drinking songs was recorded at just such a place. 18 classic tracks, all selections newly remastered.
