On May 9th and 10th we, Brassband Rijnmond, will represent the Netherlands at the European Brassband Championships in Stavanger, Norway! A great musical challenge that we are really looking forward to. But... such an adventure also brings with it the necessary financial challenges. And you can help us with that!
Stay connected and follow our journey closely! We have set up a special WhatsApp group, ‘Come Follow the Band’, where you can follow our entire adventure. What can you expect?
- Weekly updates on our preparations.
- Exclusive interviews with our conductor Luc Vertommen, members, and none other than Paul Holland.
- Photos and videos of rehearsals and performances.
- A look behind the scenes, including fun anecdotes and exciting moments.
Why do we need your support? The journey to Stavanger is not only a logistical challenge, but also an expensive undertaking. Consider for example:
- Flight tickets for 34 band members, estimated cost: € 15,000,-
- Rent of rehearsal rooms in Norway, estimated cost: € 1,000,-
- Transport of our instruments with a special bus, estimated cost: € 3,000,-
- Accommodation for 34 band members, estimated cost: € 10,000,-
What does your contribution mean? Your donation literally and figuratively helps us get closer to Stavanger! Here are some examples of what your contribution can mean:
- €10,-: Contributes to 5% of the rent of rehearsal spaces in Norway.
- €20,-: Ensures that one instrument can be safely transported to Norway.
- €50,-: Covers half an hour of rehearsal time.
- €100,-: Makes it possible to provide one band member with a hotel stay.
This way you can see exactly what your support contributes to. Every euro brings us closer to our goal and makes it possible to let our music be heard on the European stage. Together we ensure that Brassband Rijnmond can shine at full strength in Stavanger!
How can you help and participate? For a contribution of at least €10,- we will add you to the WhatsApp group ‘Come Follow the Band’. Enter your telephone number, and from March 2025 you will have access to exclusive content. Don’t miss anything on our way to the stage in Stavanger!
Do you want to contribute, but don’t want to participate in the app group?
This is certainly possible. By making a donation, we have already helped a lot, you are not obliged to leave your telephone number for the WhatsApp group.
