Info
The melody of "Is schon still uman See" was written by Günther Mittergradnegger. As a composer and conductor, he treasured his love for the Alpine folk song. The theologian, folklorist and painter Gerhard Glawischnig created the song’s lyrics. The two artists cultivated a friendship that lasted for years and developed into an intensive collaboration. In the years after 1945, the "New Carinthian Song", a kind of Alpine folk song, developed in the Alpine region and was influenced especially by Mittergradneegger and Glawischnig. Their lyrics and melodies are seen as a resounding confession to their homeland.
Inspired by the scenic landscape around Carinthia’s lake Faakersee, Gerhard Glawischnig wrote the lyrics to “Is scho still uman See” in 1956. His friend Günter Mittergradnegger set the words to music in very short time. Today, the song is considered the Carinthian song par excellence.

The series RUNDELs Little Wind Band Music (RUNDELs Kleine Blasmusik):
Playing music in small ensembles is the most original form of wind music and is currently gaining more and more importance. Ensemble musicians can work on important skills such as intonation, team playing, balancing - and express their joy of playing music straight with the audience.
The new small band series “RUNDELs Kleine Blasmusik” (Rundels Little Wind Band Music) therefore offers fascinating possibilities for groups who want to play traditional wind music such as marches, polkas or waltzes.
The concept “Quintet + (plus)” offers additional parts for two-part woodwinds, extra (solo) trumpet, percussion, accordion and accompanying parts for trombone, tenor horn, baritone/euphonium or French horn.
In addition to a clear score, the music set contains an extensive set of parts and transposed parts. Thus, a huge variety of flexible instrumentation is possible.
