Stainzer Polka (E. Reinisch) [Sheet music]

Stainzer Polka (Stainz is a municipality in Styria, so based on Grazer Spatzen being from Styria, it’s probably named after that) is an instrumental from the 1990s by Erich Reinisch, the trumpet player from one of Austria’s most popular and influential (while specialising in Oberkrainer style) Alpine folk music bands from Austria, Grazer Spatzen (Sparrows from Graz) from Styria. They are known for highly energetic, virtuosic playing, and extremely fast polkas. For example ‘Stainzer Polka’ was performed at around 160bpm by Grazer Spatzen, which is particularly impressive with 16th note accompaniment on accordion and the Gypsy Swing inspired Oberkrainer style guitar rhythm.

Although the original was performed in a quintet which utilised trumpet and clarinet for melody, I hope you might like my arrangement for accordion.
