Big Band Friendship Concert

Liberation Day has been celebrated in the Netherlands every year since the end of World War II on 5 May, and this year was the 80th anniversary of the liberation.

On the occasion of that historic day when freedom is celebrated across the country, the Big Band ´Sound Of Science´ of Wageningen University, led by Guus Tangelder, performed a concert together with the Big Band ´Big Stuf´ of the Wipperfürth School of Music, led by Marcus Bartelt.

During the concert, the bands played music from their current repertoire, but the highlight of the Friendship Concert was the moment when the two Bigbands played together, thus creating a wonderful, musical, cross-border exchange. 
The Big Band Friendship Concert was supported by the Euregio Rhine-Waal within the framework of 80 years of freedom.
