Belgian euphonium virtuoso Glenn Van Looy will once again be setting off on his international travels as he prepares to perform as a guest soloist with the Windcorp Band in Sweden.

Glenn will perform alongside flugel and trumpet stars Lucy Cutt and James Fountain as Windcorp celebrates its tenth anniversary.

Great band

The Geneva Instruments Performance Artist told 4BR: "I've enjoyed working with Windcorp before. It's a great band with an amazing atmosphere, and I'm really looking forward to performing with them again."

After the jubilee weekend Glenn will stay in Sweden to undertake some teaching and workshops with youngsters whilst he will also perform with the band at the Swedish National Championship.
