MUZIKY MUZIKY and MUSIKFEST |
A Texas Music History Exhibit focusing on German and Czech contributions to Texas Music
These lesser known, however very important aspects of Texas Music heritage are presented through photos, biographies, maps, and fascinating artifacts, all of which illuminate the historical and cultural significance of German and Czech music in Texas.
The exhibit also includes immigration histories, rare memorabilia, and music collections, such as German sheet music, reproducing piano rolls, original recordings from the early 1900’s, and one of the first accordions used for performance in Texas, dating from the turn of the century. The Czech portion of the exhibit focuses on early Texas Czech Bands, folk songs, and dance halls, as well as the more recent Texas Czech bands.
These two music history exhibits, “Musikfest”, German contributions to Texas Music, and “Muziky, Muziky”, Czech contributions to Texas Music, run concurrently through June 2009
