Lately I have been seeing some German and Austrian brass bands on youtube such as Kaiser Musikanten (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCN-Owv ... Ej9dfPAp8Q" target="_blank). I am wondering where I can find arrangements for this type of music and if there is a standard repertoire for these types of bands. Since I don't speak German it has been difficult to find any information.
Thanks,
Julian

Re: Where to find polka charts
I use the Halter website (just use Google to translate the pages):
https://halter.de/" target="_blank
Among my favorite books are the Stimmung im Zelt - Heft 1,2,3 and 4.
It takes about 3 weeks to get the delivery but the folks are very reliable.
They have a ton of German band stuff including the Ernst Mosch arrangements. (I assume you have a number of his (Mosch's) CDs.)

Re: Where to find polka charts
Here's a couple more German sites for you to check out:
rundel.de - has a ton of charts for various instrumentations. My favorites are some of the flexible ensemble arrangements that they have.
https://www.alpenblech.de/" target="_blank - another fantastic group like Kaiser Musikanten and they sell a number of their charts on their website. You can find recordings of most, if not all, on Spotify.
https://mnozil-brass.myshopify.com/" target="_blank - Mnozil Brass also has a bunch of great charts for sale on their website
https://www.viera-blech.at/" target="_blank - same as above, a great ensemble that sells their chars on their website
I most definitely don't have a problem, I just love listening to this stuff so much.
