Purpose of the UBF

Quote Erik Salzwedel November 8, 2017 No Comments

PURPOSE    

The 3rd Moravian Unity Brass Festival is an international event that connects the Worldwide Unity (Unitas Fratrum) through musical collaboration, builds friendships and community, and celebrates oneness in Christ.

The 3rd Festival will assemble musicians of North America together with those from throughout the Moravian provinces and mission areas, providing travel assistance, help with accommodations, and hospitality.

The format is four days of rehearsals, activities, and ensemble performance with a final concert on Sunday afternoon. The massed brass ensemble will play new arrangements of sacred music together; smaller ensembles will play at various locations in Winston-Salem on Saturday and in area churches for worship on Sunday morning.

Welcoming all ages and all levels, the Festival provides opportunities to improve musicality, skills, and ensemble. The Festival builds for the future by teaching, leading and encouraging brass musicians, arrangers and composers.
