The World Music Contest Kerkrade Foundation
The World Music Contest is internationally recognised as the most significant international festival for music for wind and brass instruments. During the WMC, the most important and high-profile bands from around the world will introduce you to the amazing variety of music for wind and brass instruments.
Every four years, the WMC welcomes tens of thousands of participants from all corners of the globe and hundreds of thousands of visitors, who ensure that Kerkrade becomes the worldwide focus of wind and brass music.
From July 4th through July 29th 2011, you can have a thoroughly enjoyable time at the 60 Years Anniversary of WMC, which offers a huge range of music. For instance, there are the marching and show band contests on the grass at Parkstad Limburg Stadium, the top-level concert contests in the completely renovated Rodahal,
cross-over concerts by various well-known artists and the largest and most lively party, which takes place throughout the centre of Kerkrade.
Thanks to the great variety of categories, the WMC shows what music for wind and brass bands has to offer.
You will be amazed by what you hear during the WMC!
- WMC 2013 will be held from Thursday July 4th up to and including July 28th, 2013.
