Situation
The Klingendes Museum Bern holds a set of matching instruments and music books from Hundwil in Canton Appenzell Ausserrhoden, dating from the first half of the 19th century. The sheet music contains information on instrumentation, people, places and dates. This collection of music, instruments and information is unique, and promises exciting insights into the development of wind ensemble music in Switzerland, from military bands to amateur music associations.
