history
Before 1800, the "original musicians" of the salt mine are said to have made music in loose groups. A newspaper report from 1808 describes that mine musicians took part on the occasion of the opening of the Kaiser-Max-Stollen. The official founding took place in 1821 after a "music banda" consisting of 16 Salzbergers already existed, which was led by the mountain officer Josef Holzhammer senior. was directed. In 1838 the metalworkers under Josef Pircher founded the "Pfannhausmusikkapelle", which was soon superior to the older miners' band. The "Bürgerguardemusik" was founded in 1839/40. 3 bands played in the small town of Hall. In 1840 the first release took place as a pure brass harmony in public under the direction of Josef Pircher as "Pfannhausmusik". Clarinets appear in the scores of 1854 - but no percussion until that time . Hall housed four music bands in 1858, because the civil guards and the military also had their own music. The Salinen official director Michael Kelb collected the musicians of the miners' and Pfannhaus music and united them to the "Salinenmusik". It was the “Salinerler” who were used as the official music band of the municipality for many tasks from 1875 to 1910. The musical directors were the Kapellmeister Ploner and Johann Fintl. Johann Fintl was the conductor of the Pfannhauser music band from 1897 to 1928. On March 23, 1928, Alois Fintl took over the baton. The activities were only interrupted by the Second World War , but the first rehearsal was held on March 2, 1946. When the salt works were shut down in 1967, thanks to the closed attitude of all musicians, the band could be saved into the new era. After the founding of the “Straubschützenkompanie” in Hall, the Salinenmusik took over not only the traditional miner costume but also the Straubschütz costume and now also functioned as a rifle musician. In 1987 Alois Fintl handed over the baton to the city's music director Hannes Buchegger, who gave up this position after a few months. In 1988 Georg Bleyer took over the musical direction. In the spring of 1989, the 60-year-old chairman Gottfried Zanger transferred this function to younger hands after 31 years of service. After Rudolf Hornsteiner, Kurt Kreidl and Harald Fischer, Markus Galloner has been chairman of the Salinenmusik since 2011.
The saltworks music is inseparable from Hall salt mining and the saltworks town of Hall in Tyrol. Since then, musical miners and people interested in music from various professional groups have been on hand at events. Receptions for members of the imperial family, the federal government, park concerts, mountain festivals, television appearances, weddings, church celebrations, pilgrimages and serenades were and are part of the tasks of music.
In the 20th century there were two great personalities, Johann Fintl and his son Alois Fintl, who together shaped the music for 90 years through their commitment.
A new musical challenge arose when he met Daniel Walch from Zug am Arlberg, who led the band from 2006 to 2016. Numerous successful concert projects were organized under Walch. In autumn 2015, Walch announced that he would be resigning from conducting the Salinenmusikkapelle for private reasons. The club put the musical direction in the hands of 22-year-old Robert Brunner from Volders . The official handover of the baton will take place at the 2016 spring concert on May 21st.

Every year, December 4th is traditionally associated with St. Barbara , the patron saint of miners. This feast day is marked by the black uniforms of the miners with feather plumes (the black uniforms of the miners; the white ones of the supervisory staff; the red ones of the musicians of the miners' brass band).
All uniform elements symbolize certain historical work activities or work processes in the mine and are borrowed from the historical working world of the miner.
- a kalpak , headgear on which a golden cockade and a white or black plume are attached
- Cockade , golden badge with hammer and mallet, is worn on the kalpak
- a plume of feathers , formerly: a feather wiper that was used to clean blast holes and was worn by miners behind a ribbon on their hats
- a shaft cap, a modification of a small hat without a peak (formerly used as head protection during dismantling work)
- black fringes on the sleeves, these symbolize a series of fuses that were indispensable for blasting work and that were worn tied to the sleeves
- Shoulder collar , on the other hand, is a "leftover piece" of a pelerine (a protective coat) that served as shoulder and water protection,
- Golden buttons with hammer and mallet (also known as iron and mallet) in the number no less than 29, which are supposed to symbolize the years of life of St. Barbara and the gold of the buttons the light of the sun.
Saline fellowship
On festive occasions, the Salinenmusik Hall in Tirol is accompanied by the saline comradeship of former mine workers with a flag delegation. The foundation of the association "Comradeship of the former Saline employees Hall / Absam / Thaur" goes back to 1967 in Absam. Even before the final act of closing the salt mountain with the final closure of the saltworks in Hall on December 31, 1967, 26 comrades of the former saltworks employees met in the guesthouse in Absam to maintain the old tradition and the bond with the mountain and the hut and let live on This joint support has almost 500 years of history and arose from the old brother shops of the Austrian and German mining industry. On the one hand one of the first health insurances, on the other hand as a kind of pension for widows and orphans of miners and ironworkers.
