It is hoped that the first World Brass Day will be celebrated around the globe on 23rd September with a series of performances of its official anthem, 'La Mourisque' by 16th century renaissance composer Tielman Susato.
The global celebration under the heading 'Music Inspires', is the brainchild of renowned trumpet player Prof. Otto Sauter, the founder of the World Brass and European Brass Associations.

It is aimed at inspiring brass musicians to come together to help promote musical cooperation and cultural understanding — from individuals to universities, small ensembles to professional symphony orchestras.
