"Aus Böhmen kommt die Musik ...!"
(Music is coming from Bohemia! - Title of a famous German Polka)

The music, especially the brass music from Bohemia, the "Egerland" (part of Bohemia, todays Czech Republic) or from "Danube Swabian" (former part of Hungary), entranced and inspired me already since my childhood.
Already at the age of about ten years I received my first musical education and play since then actively a trumpet and a "Flügelhorn" (special form of a trumpet, especially for Bohemian music) in several music associations and bands.
