This is my children's wind band project that started in 2011. We play in the street and in the church, at festivals and x-mas markets, at school and at our favourite ice cream parlor, for children's lantern runs and for collecting money for social projects - and just for fun:
We play tunes of "all kinds", not always perfect, but with love and respect for the music and the attempt to give our best. The kids actually are 9 to 15 years old, most of them learned their instruments at our school or when they started with the band. The youngest member we ever had was a 5 year old boy who now is 17, playing first trumpet in his school big band. One of my flutists was in my kindergarden group when she was two years old, it is very special for me that we make music together ten years later now. All of them are fun to work with.
Sometimes we get support by grown up players. Cross-generation-music is a big thing.
