International youth band meeting in Donaueschingen

Susanne Bader, education officer for the BDB-Bläserjugend, characterized the meeting as a “unique blend of musical quality and international exchange.” Anniversary highlights include plaza concerts in the city center and a large-scale flashmob involving all participating orchestras. The city was chosen due to its musical tradition and the facilities at the Donauhallen concert halls.
