It is a great honour for me as President of the World Association for Symphonic Bands and Ensembles (WASBE) to welcome you to the 1st WASBE Regional Conference here in Debrecen, Hungary, a country with a great musical history and a wonderful music education tradition. This is not only the 1st WASBE Regional Conference, but

it is the first WASBE Conference to be held in Eastern Europe, thus providing WASBE members with the first real look at the wind band movement in this part of the world. Although bands from Hungary, Latvia, and other Eastern European countries have performed at WASBE Conferences, this is the first opportunity to experience in depth the wind band culture of Hungary and to learn about the wind band/ensemble music of its neighbouring countries.On behalf of WASBE, I wish to thank the Local Organisation for making this Conference here in Debrecen possible. Together with WASBE, the Local Organisation has developed an engrossing program of concerts, lectures, master classes, and workshops. I wish all participants a wonderful Conference and an enjoyable stay in this beautiful city of Debrecen.

With kind regards, Bert AaldersWASBE President
