Since its founding in 1900, the "Posaunenchor" has shaped the musical identity of the Evangelical Parish of Hilgen-Neuenhaus in Wermelskirchen, located in the heart of the Bergisches Land. The name "Trombone Choir" is somewhat misleading, as the approximately 40 musicians of various age groups have always performed in a symphonic wind orchestra formation – including woodwinds, brass instruments, and percussion. Originally founded to accompany church services musically, the orchestra continues to make a significant contribution to the cultural life of the parish.
Today, the musicians are particularly known for performing entertaining wind music at concerts, events, and public occasions. Since 2003, the concert series "Swing & More" has thrilled audiences with its unique blend of vocals, big band, and orchestral sound. Under this title, the group has performed numerous times – not only within their hometown of Wermelskirchen but also abroad in European countries such as the Czech Republic, Austria, Italy, and Kosovo, as well as on two concert tours in Brazil. A rhythm section with guitar, piano, and bass has since become a permanent part of the ensemble. At concerts, the orchestra is often joined by various vocal soloists, resulting in a versatile sound body that allows for a wide musical range – from traditional wind music to big band jazz, rock, and pop.
In 1982, Peter Rinne – a well-known and multifaceted musician, composer, and trained conductor in the Bergisches Land – took over the musical direction. Since 1999, Patrick Mühlhausen has been providing custom musical arrangements tailored to the ensemble. The concert repertoire is continuously expanded with new pieces and is very popular with audiences.
