The special postage stamp is issued on the occasion of the anniversary of the 50th anniversary of the Landesverband der Tiroler Blasmusikkapellen. The brand image shows the brass band Kössen. Wind music and brass band orchestras look back on a long history and carefully cultivated tradition in the Tyrol, dating back to the Middle Ages. The Tyrolean brass band owes its long existence, its popularity and its format to the fact that - despite all traditions - it is fully integrated into society. The numerous Tyrolean chapels practice a partnership-like cooperation and are pleased with this thriving, lively section of folk music, with the approach to professional music making and with the fact that these music communities are among the most valuable things Tyrol has to offer in the field of music.
