Music

Being positioned in the center of Europe's three music capitals—France, Germany, and Italy—has a bearing on the music of Liechtenstein. Their musical tradition is most likely related to German music, nevertheless. Josef Rheinberger is the best-renowned composer among them. He is frequently credited as having mentored German composer Engelbert Humperdinck, who is best known for his opera Hänsel und Gretel. Franz Liszt, a well-known Hungarian composer, was a friend of Rheinberger, a prolific organist. He was born and reared in Liechtenstein, although he spent the majority of his life there.

A large portion of Liechtenstein's culture includes music. Every year, a number of music events, like the Liechtenstein Guitar Days, are hosted to honor various genres of music. The Singing Society comprises 24 adult choirs and 12 children's choruses, demonstrating how popular choirs are. There are a number of symphony orchestras as well as jazz and blues ensembles as well as a big band orchestra. Brass bands are also well-liked and dress in traditional garb.
