A competition for top Swiss brass bands in Graubünden, inspired by the British Brass in Concert, which has been in existence since 1977. The competition is aimed at brass bands from the 1st class to the highest class according to the latest ranking of the Swiss Brass Band Competition.

Each band plays a self-contained program, which must meet the following criteria:

- Only original works or high-quality arrangements for brass band

- a solo piece (winds or percussion)

- one test piece approx. 5 min (commissioned composition identical for all bands)

- Duration of the program 30 - 35 min

An open jury of two experts evaluates the musical achievements in three different categories:

- Best overall musical performance

- Best test piece

- Best Soloist

A juror, together with the audience, evaluates the factor of entertainment, content and creativity. The vote of the audience at 50% and the juror at 50% then results in the prize:

- Best entertainment program

The overall winner of the competition is determined by the following factors:

- Sum of the two jurors for the overall musical performance (max. 200 points)

- Sum of audience and juror: entertainment program and creativity (max. 100 points)

On a late evening tour, we go in search of these secret inhabitants in our neighbourhood with the snail enthusiast Ueli Schneppat in Chur.

In spring, frogs, newts, dragonflies and other animals should feel comfortable in and around the pond again. That's why we clean the three amphibian ponds on the Rossboden in autumn, cut hedges and pluck neophytes.
More than 20 years ago, the pond club created amphibian ponds on the Rossboden together with the city of Chur. Together with the WWF, we maintain the small pond landscape.
