Programme notes: The Kitzbühler Standschützen: Tradition and music in the heart of Tyrol The Kitzbühler Standschützen are a traditional shooting society in picturesque Kitzbühel, a town in Tyrol, Austria. Their origins date back to the 18th century, when local shooting clubs were established as military and social institutions in various Alpine regions. The Standschützen were not only responsible for protecting the communities, but they also played a central role in the social and cultural life of the region. The Kitzbühler Standschützen maintain a variety of traditions to this day, which manifest themselves in festivals, shooting fairs and shooting competitions. The annual shooting festival in particular, where the community of Standschützen and citizens come together, is a highlight in Kitzbühel's event calendar. These traditions promote community spirit and a sense of connection with the homeland. The Kitzbühler Standschützen March The "Kitzbühler Standschützen March" was composed by Georg Kaltschmid in the context of the shooting traditions. Kaltschmid, a well-known composer and musician, immortalized the proud history and identity of the Kitzbühler Standschützen with this piece. The march is not only a musical work, but also a symbol of the people's connection with their culture and their roots. The march is characterized by dynamic rhythms and harmonious melodies that reflect the spirit and dignity of the Standschützen. It is often played at festive occasions and parades and has become a popular part of the repertoire of wind orchestras. The arrangement of the "Kitzbühler Standschützen March" for wind orchestra by Hans Kliment has given the work new dimensions and made it accessible to a wider audience. Kliment, a renowned arranger and composer, knew how to enhance the musical elements while preserving Kaltschmid's original intention. His arrangements combine technical sophistication with tonal diversity, which means that the march is performed not only at shooting festivals, but also at concerts and competitions. Kliment's arrangement has made a significant contribution to anchoring the tradition and pride of the Kitzbühler Standschützen in modern brass music.
