CONCEPT
Brass Band Willebroek is highly respected in Belgium as one of the ambassadors of their discipline and has for years focused on training musicians to become absolute brass band stars. During the “Brass Band Willebroek Academy” all brass players can immerse themselves in this wonderful world for a week.
Rehearsals are alternated with individual lessons, where the soloists of Brass Band Willebroek assist you with their many years of experience. In addition to the many hours of musical pleasure, there is of course plenty of attention to other forms of recreation.
Willebroek Academy Band
& Willebroek Academy NXT
During the “BBWA”, 2 different bands are formed. The less experienced musicians are housed at the “Willebroek Academy NXT” and are led by euphonium player and passionate conductor Nick Ost.
The more advanced musicians form the “Willebroek Academy Band” and have none other than Frans Violet as conductor. Based on your level and ambitions, it is determined in which band you will play.

BED MUZET - LIER
The culture hostel “Bed Muzet” in Lier is part of the first culture campus in Flanders. A unique concept that connects old and new. The culture campus is located around the beautiful garden of the former Jesuit fathers and, in addition to Bed Muzet, also includes the Municipal Music Academy, a bar-restaurant (Bar Muza) and a concert hall.
The hostel is primarily aimed at anyone who is culturally active. Uniquely, groups that stay in “Bed Muzet” can use the instruments and rooms of the music academy.
