Wind Orchestra of the Art Schools of Jihlava and Přelouč
CZ
Wind Orchestra of the Art Schools of Jihlava and Přelouč represents two leading youth wind ensembles in the Czech Republic. Both orchestras are characterized by a high level of performance, a long-standing tradition, and remarkable achievements at national and international competitions. The collaboration of these two orchestras for the World Music Contest in Kerkrade brings a unique artistic synergy — an expanded instrumentation, a richer tonal palette, and the combination of experienced musicians with the creative energy of the young generation. This joint project will result in a cohesive, technically proficient, and expressively unified ensemble that will proudly represent Czech art education abroad. At the same time, it strengthens cooperation between two well-established institutions and demonstrates that wind music in art schools not only has a strong tradition but also a modern identity and promising future.
