Brass Band Willebroek Academy

Brass Band Willebroek is to continue its inspirational work with the next generation of young performers through their ongoing investment in their Willebroek Academy Band and Willebroek Academy Junior Band. Plans are taking shape to hold a special week of learning from the 8th to 13th August later this year so that the next generation of players can gain invaluable tutoring experience.

Rehearsals for the Academy Band under Frans Violet will alternate with individual lessons from star players such as: Jeroen Corneillie & Lode Violet (cornet); Tim De Maeseneer (horn); Kevin Van Giel (baritone & euphonium); Wim Lauryssen (trombone); Toon Rutten and Kelly Helsen (percussion). The younger, less experienced members will join forces with the Junior Band led by conductor Toon Rutten and assisted by Jonas Violet, Anne-Sophie Leveugle and Nikki De Raes.

The course is open to all ages and abilities, with further information and the details on how to register available at: https://en.brassbandwillebroek.be/bbwa
