Zentralkapelle Berlin & Windcraft Band

Zentralkapelle Berlin and the Windcraft Band have a long story of uniting different cultures through their music. They first came together for two performances in Cyprus in October 2015 and repeated the same show in July 2016 in Berlin. For the third time, the two wind bands are ready to perform a diverse musical programme – from German Blasmusik, funky and pop pieces to some latin and traditional tunes – bringing people closer through the sound of their winds.

About the Zentralkapelle Berlin
In the beginning we were just friends – then we became an orchestra: Zentralkapelle Berlin is a concert band with a broad repertoire of music.
Since 2002 we follow the same procedure as every year: Throughout the year we enjoy playing at street festivals, private or public parties, art exhibitions or movie and theatre projects, and especially enjoy the sound of coins dropping into the strategically placed trumpet case. Once a year, all that practice, and quite a share of the coins from the trumpet case, culminate in the big formal “Traditional Summer Concert”, which we perform at luxurious concert halls like the Berlin Philharmonie, each year again winning the enthusiasm of the spoiled Berlin audience. At these concerts, up to 60 musicians with their woodwind, brass and percussion instruments fill the stage to its maximum capacity.
With our occasional tours to Sweden, Cyprus, Saxony, the Southwest of Germany, and Brandenburg over and over again, we contribute our share to international understanding. But wherever we play, one thing is guaranteed: at the very end, we will play the same piece. Every time.

About the Windcraft Band
Around twenty enthusiastic musicians from around the world met in 2013 in Nicosia and formed the Windcraft Band. Since then, the band has performed in many big festivals, smaller venues and outdoor events all over Cyprus. This multicultural group celebrates their passion for music and fills up the city and village squares with their powerful brass sound. Funky and latin grooves make space to elegant swing pieces, rock sounds to traditional Greek and Balkan tunes, and everything blends to create a magical atmosphere, the way it always happens when people join their breaths and voices…
