Wiel adds a touch of cheer to the museum with his barrel organs. He builds them himself and also built the organ in the museum chapel. He’s happy to explain how the organ works.

The quartet consists of 3 wind instruments and a double bass. They play with an orchestra band. The repertoire is called “Unterhaltungsmusik”, in most cases of German origin; but they also play pop music. The audience appreciates the music as cheerful music that makes one happy.

The vocal group Vur Mekaar from Asten consists of about 10 singers. Using backing tracks, they perform a selection of traditional Dutch sing-alongs, flower power, old country songs, and German hits from the 70s.

In the afternoon, the duo Free time from Nederweert will provide live music.

The Senior Orchestra Meijel and surroundings was founded in 1990 and consists of 22 musicians. The first members came primarily from the local Eendracht orchestra, but also from bands in the surrounding area.
The program features a variety of catchy pieces.

The Nag’s Head was founded in September 1997 as an initiative of a number of people from Nederweert with a past in the folk dance world. The name of the band is, how could it be otherwise, the same as the name of many pubs in Ireland. And the band’s motto is just as appropriate: “A song to a beer”.

Since its inception, The Nag’s Head has been playing cozy pub songs, melancholic traditionals, world-famous folk songs, moving ballads and the instrumental songs are not forgotten.

The Fire Brigade Band has existed for over 40 years and originated from the volunteer fire department. In its early years, the brass band played carnivalesque music, but today it features a more Bohemian, Moravian, and Egerländer repertoire, as well as modern brass music.

Mart Vervoort zorgt deze middag voor een vrolijke noot met zijn accordeon en zang.
