The Rauris traditional costume band was founded in 1797, making it the oldest band in Pinzgau in SalzburgerLand. The prosperity that mining brought to the valley probably helped to finance a local traditional costume band.

Back then, it was mainly local musicians from the peasant class who learned to play - on musical instruments that were not as diverse as they are today. The musicians have immortalized mining in their traditional costumes, on which the mining coat of arms is embroidered.
Today, the Rauris traditional costume band has 48 musicians, a bandmaster, an honorary bandmaster and two honorary members. Not to forget the five sutlers, who not only look after the musicians' well-being, but also treat the listeners to schnapps.

A very well-known piece is the "Rojachermarsch", which was composed by Stefan Reiter Sr. and sets the history of the Rauris Valley to music.
