Coming Soon! A new book on the history of the New Ulm Municipal band, including bands of New Ulm preceeding it!
With members ranging in age from 13 to 90+, the NUMB practices weekly, from March through July, and plays weekly concerts in New Ulm, from late May through early September. The Band has travelled to and played in neighboring communities, as well as Chicago, and throughout Germany in 2000. Playing a wide range of repertoire, from ethnic German and Bavarian music, to show tunes, Americana, folk medleys, patriotic and standard wind band pieces, there is something for everyone to enjoy. Nothing is more relaxing than sitting in a lawn chair in the shade on a warm summer evening, listening to band music, with a fountain gurgling and children playing in the background. Once in a while, the Band even takes a pause while a train passes by. The band also plays in the local celebration of Germanic enthnicity, Bavarian Blast, and for a celebration of the landmark statue, Herman the German, in September.
