Belgian champion Brass Band Willebroek is to relaunch its Solo Competition after the inaugural event was cancelled due to the Coronavirus Pandemic.
The band hopes that each of the 66 players who entered the initial event will do so again, with a new date for the competition to take place at the Municipal Theatre in Willebroek on Saturday October 23rd.
The jury will consist of Kristien Schuurmans, Arthur Vanderhoeft, Bastien Baumet and Luc Vertommen. Each participant will receive a video of his or her performance, in collaboration with Yuja and CU Brass.
