Munich Philharmonic at the Hofbrauhaus

[Yane]

Interesting project where Lorin Maazel takes the winds of the Munich orchestra back to their beer hall roots to make a CD that I'm guessing will be frustratingly unavailable in the United States.

There is a video where you can see several tubas and oval baritones. Undoubtedly those whose German goes beyond mine ("Ein bier bitte!") will get more out of it. Surprisingly, I heard a Sousa march (Hands Across the Sea?) among the selections.
