In addition to the beautiful Christmas carol singing, the tradition from earlier times and how it is still practiced today around the turn of the year will also be shown by various traditional groups from the region. Outstanding singers and musicians from the Alpine region will be on hand to provide musical accompaniment. The Ischl dialect poet Christa Gschwandtner will recite appropriate thoughts from her pen in her heartfelt dialect. Folk culture spokesman Peter Gillesberger will lead through the program. We’re especially looking forward to the down-to-earth, humorous shepherds’ play, which will be performed this year by the Grundlsee shepherd children under the direction of Herbert Gasperl from the Ausseerland region. Here at home in the Salzkammergut, the Glöckler are out and about at the start of the new year with their magnificent caps. The painstakingly crafted Glöckler caps are worn by the Sulzbach Brunnleit’n Glöckler from Lauffen. The AGV Kohlröserl carolers from Ebensee bring the lively caroling tradition to life with their traditional costumes. In between, traditional caroling songs are sung and time-honored sayings are recited. Providing musical accompaniment are the Ischler Weisenbläser, the popular Gruber Zwoagsang from Tyrol, and the Gosinger Geigenmusi from the Salzkammergut. “Shepherds, Tresterer, and Glöckler, come on up to the Salzkammergut!” **Participating folk groups:** Grundlseer Hirtenkinder from the Ausseerland Sulzbach Brunnleit’n Glöckler from Lauffen AGV Kohlröserl carolers from Ebensee Dialect: Christa Gschwandtner from Bad Ischl **Participating folk music groups:** Ischler Weisenbläser Gosinger Geigenmusi Gruber Zwoagsang from Tyrol Narrator: Peter Gillesberger [ Contact ](#ttgCollapseKontakt) ---------------------------------- **Event & Werbe GesmbH** 4820 Bad Ischl book a ticket [book a ticket](https://ticketing.salzkammergut.at/de/buyingflow/tickets/10234/25457/ "New window") --- **We speak the following languages** German [ Event location ](#ttgCollapseVeranstaltungsorte) ---------------------------------------------------- **Maria im Schatten Pilgrimage Church in Lauffen** Marktstraße 49, 4820 Bad Ischl Phone [+43 6132 23049](tel:+43613223049) E-Mail [ Arrival ](#ttgCollapseAnreise) ---------------------------------- [ Prices ](#ttgCollapsePreise) -------------------------------- [book a ticket](https://ticketing.salzkammergut.at/de/buyingflow/tickets/10234/25457/ "New window") [ Suitability ](#ttgCollapseEignung) -------------------------------------- - Suitable for groups - Suitable for single travelers - Suitable for friends - Suitable for couples [ Accessibility ](#ttgCollapseBarrierefreiheit) ------------------------------------------------- Please get in touch for more information.
