The Music Association of Mauer-Öhling celebrated its 100th anniversary with a large-scale event featuring a record-breaking march known as 'Große Wende.' Approximately 724 musicians from 30 ensembles participated in the performance, which included a coordinated turn by a massive marching band. Although they achieved a remarkable feat, the organizers decided against submitting their achievement to the Guinness Book of World Records due to costs and bureaucratic challenges. The event was attended by notable figures including Landeshauptfrau Johanna Mikl-Leitner of the Austrian People’s Party (ÖVP). She praised the role of brass bands in fostering community spirit and cultural identity across Lower Austria. The celebration concluded with a morning drink and music in a festival tent.
