Programme notes: The History of Lambach and its Riflemen's Guard Lambach, a picturesque community in the Wels-Land district of Upper Austria, has a rich history closely linked to the development of the Riflemen's Guard. This tradition dates back to the 12th century, when riflemen's guilds were founded to defend citizens and ensure public safety. The riflemen's movement embodied not only military discipline, but also customs and community spirit. The first records of riflemen in Lambach date back to the period following the Turkish siege, when the need for organization and protection became particularly urgent. Over the centuries, the Riflemen's Guard developed into a significant institution that made a significant contribution to Lambach's social life. In addition to defense, it was also active in social and cultural affairs, organizing festivals and events that strengthened the citizens' sense of community. The Lambach Riflemen's Guard was known not only for its military role, but also for its influence on regional culture. The riflemen's festivals, at which members appeared in festive uniforms, attracted numerous visitors and became highlights of the community's annual calendar. The march composition "Lambacher Schützen" by Johann Holzinger A significant cultural achievement associated with the Lambach Riflemen's Guard is the march composition "Lambacher Schützen," created by the renowned composer Johann Holzinger (1882-1959). Holzinger, who himself was deeply rooted in musical culture, wrote numerous marches and musical pieces that clearly reflected the riflemen's tradition. The composition "Lambacher Schützen" captures the spirit and energy of the Riflemen's Guard and serves both as a musical testament to the tradition and as an expression of the sense of community among the citizens of Lambach. With powerful melodies and catchy rhythms, the piece conveys both dignity and joie de vivre – qualities that have defined the Schützen-Garde over the years. The Lambach Schützen-Garde continues to play a central role in the community's cultural life. Its participation in parades, church celebrations, and regional competitions is an integral part of Lambach's identity. The musical version of Holzinger's March is often performed at special events, thus establishing a direct connection between past and present. The combination of the Schützen-Garde tradition and Holzinger's music has helped keep the values ​​of solidarity, honor, and patriotism alive in Lambach to this day. Annual events, including music concerts and Schützenfests, contribute to the continuation of these traditions and the promotion of community. The history of Lambach and the Schützen-Garde represents a striking example of the importance of tradition and community in Austrian culture. The march composition "Lambacher Schützen" by Johann Holzinger remains a significant cultural heritage, reflecting the connection between music and tradition. In a constantly changing environment, the Schützen-Garde of Lambach is a preserving element that shapes and strengthens the identity and values ​​of the local people.
