Bio
KONINKLIJKE FANFARE PHILHARMONIE LEENDE The Koninklijke Fanfare Philharmonie from Leende was founded on May 1, 1850, as the music association Philharmonie. In 1867, the association became the Fanfare Philharmonie, and in 1960, the association received the Royal designation. The Philharmonie has a history characterized by musical excellence and community involvement. For example, the band won the national championship in the premier division in 1955 and 1989. This quality has continued to this day, culminating in a record score of 95.75 points in the superior division in 2002. In addition to performing at a high level, the band has been a prominent presence in the village for more than a century and a half, enhancing special events such as King's Day, Remembrance Day, carnival, fairs, and the presentation of Royal Decorations. The association has over 140 members. At the Philharmonie, music-making is paramount. The large orchestra (fanfare orchestra) competes in the first division, and the percussion orchestra (youth and adults) in the second division. The Philharmonie also has a student orchestra and a small group orchestra. All sections of the association are led by enthusiastic and passionate conductors.
