Bavarian Musikmeisters Bringing Polkas, Waltzes, Marches to Edina

The Bavarian Musikmeisters bring their brand of Germanic music and culture to Edina on Wednesday.

The 35-member wind instrument band will play at Centennial Lakes Park at 7 p.m.

Here's more about the band from their website:

The Musikmeisters are modeled after the traditional village bands found in the German-speaking areas of Europe. Their attire, instrumentation, and musical arrangements of marches, polkas, waltzes, folk dances, and ballads are all authentic.

Also this week in Edina, P.Z. Myers comes to the Galleria Barnes and Noble Tuesday evening for a reading and signing of his latest book, "The Happy Atheist."
