Oom-pah or Umpapa is an onomatopoeic name for a type of Germanic
music (especially Bavarian music) typically involving brass
instruments. It is often associated with beer halls and is
played by a band, as opposed to solo.
The name "oom-pah" is sometimes said to come from the sound of
the tuba on the root of the chord (bass) and alternate bass on
the following measure (5th of chord) -- this sound is said to be
oom, and is followed by the clarinet's pah on the octave of the
chord in each measure [1]. Chicken Dance is a famous example of
oom-pah music.
