Get Involved
Join our chorus of voices, where tradition meets passion in every note.
These are the outgoing individuals who thrive on connection, community, and celebration. Social Connectors are drawn to the Houston Saengerbund’s lively events—like Oktoberfest and the Weihnachtkonzert—not just for the music and culture, but for the opportunity to mingle, network, and enjoy shared experiences. They’re often the ones rallying friends to attend and sharing photos from the dance floor or beer garden. For them, the Saengerbund is as much a social hub as it is a cultural institution.
Cultural Enthusiasts have a deep appreciation for tradition, heritage, and the arts. They attend Saengerbund concerts and events to immerse themselves in authentic German music, language, and customs. Often lifelong learners or seasoned arts patrons, they value the preservation of cultural history and see the Saengerbund as a vital contributor to Houston’s diverse arts scene. Whether they’re fluent in German or simply curious about the culture, they engage with intention and passion.
Families come to the Houston Saengerbund looking for meaningful, multi-generational experiences. They’re attracted to festive and educational events where children can learn about German culture through music, food, and holiday traditions. Parents value the wholesome, welcoming atmosphere, and grandparents often appreciate sharing a part of their heritage with younger generations. Events like the Weihnachtskonzert or Oktoberfest performances are a big draw for this group.
Educators see the Houston Saengerbund as a valuable partner in broadening cultural awareness and providing rich, real-world learning opportunities. They may be German language teachers, music instructors, or general educators who bring students to concerts or collaborate on grant-supported projects. With a strong interest in curriculum enrichment and cross-cultural education, they champion the Saengerbund’s mission and often serve as bridges between the organization and local schools or universities.
Raise your steins and bring your appetites—HSB’s Oktoberfest is back! Enjoy an authentic taste of German culture with delicious bratwurst, pretzels, and of course, cold German beer. With lively entertainment, traditional music, and a welcoming atmosphere, this annual celebration is one of our most popular events. Come dressed in your dirndls and lederhosen and join the fun!
Our Maennerchor (Men’s Choir) will travel to Sam Houston State University to perform at the annual Tenor-Bass Invitational. This event brings together choirs from across the region for a day of shared learning, community, and performance. We’re honored to represent the Houston Saengerbund and showcase our sound in this collegiate setting—come out and support our singers on the road!
