“With an astonishing variety of tradititional instruments and song repertoire the Bavarian folk music represents a unique tradition within the cultural landscape of Germany. Bavarian culture is more than just the OKTOBERFEST, the world’s largest Volksfest. It is a deeply rooted tradition of music, costumes and way of life.
