In partnership with KYMN Radio, “Prelude to the Vintage Band Festival” is a ten part podcast series featuring musical recordings of bands that performed for the Vintage Band Festival in August 2010. Hosted by the festival’s artistic director, Paul Niemisto, you will hear selections from recent albums and live concert recordings by both American favorites and foreign stars. Some highlights include:
- Polkas with Tschecharanka Bohemian Style Band, Austria
- Waltzes with Meire/Grove Carlisle
Town Band, MN - Marches with the Federal City Band, D.C
- Tangos with Ameriikan Poijat, MN
- and much more!
While these podcasts are both entertaining and educational, there is really no replacement for seeing these bands live. We hope you enjoy the episodes and will join us in August of 2013 for Vintage Band Festival #3.
The ten episodes of “Prelude to the Vintage Band Festival” have been archived at KYMN 1080 AM radio.
