Our society
The music of Biwer, since 1954.
Musek vun der Gemeng Biwer a.s.b.l. is the music society of the municipality of Biwer. A non-profit association, it brings together musicians of all ages around a modern and classical repertoire, and plays its part in the cultural and festive life of the municipality.
Our origins
Biwer Musek was born in 1954 from the band of the Duchscher & Co factory, a company based in the municipality since the early 20th century and very active in its cultural life. Music-loving residents then went on to create the society we know today.
Ups and downs, still standing
Like many associations, the society has known both golden years and harder times. Thanks to the commitment of its members, the arrival of young talent and the experience of loyal musicians, it still wins over its audience today with melodies that speak to everyone.
