A video at your home!

We all stay at home in times of corona. Did you look forward to that one concert that has been canceled, for which you practiced for months? Are you looking for a new challenge in these perhaps more boring times?

We offer you the opportunity to put your talent in the spotlight! Brass band Willebroek organizes the Online Soloist Competition.

Participate by recording a work of your choice in your room and send it to us. Each candidate receives feedback from 3 professional jury members and also has the chance to win some wonderful prizes!

Register before 3 May and receive a free report and perhaps more!
