…LOVE WHAT`S YOURS!!! is also gaining increasing importance of appearances and competition of brass bands in the region of Pomerania. The first three editions have proved that despite progress in creating a sound, live orchestral playing is still attractive – witnessed by the crowds standing every year along the route of the march orchestras and a large number of applications of teams interested in participating in the contest. There is nothing to replace the beautiful sound of a brass band - find out about this, you can attending concerts.

The fourth edition of …LOVE WHAT`S YOURS!!! – get to know your Neighbours... - Baltic Sea Brass Band Festival, Zblewo `2014 will begin with the conference "Role of brass bands in folk culture" which the program will lead Witosława Frankowska from the Academy of Music in Gdansk. The conference will examine the importance of brass bands in the former social, cultural and religious, and the process of its transformation to date. Invited to participate ethnomusicologists, regionalists, bandmasters and people interested in music and folk culture in Pomerania.

The second day is a traditional march of brass bands which for a change will perform selected by itself works. The march will end at the 700 Anniversary Square in Zablewo, where in turn will be played out hymns United Europe, Polish, Kashubian and Kociewski and also Song Kwidzyniaków. In this way we will try to beat Polish or European record while playing under the baton of one conductor. Then begin auditions of teams, and after the meeting of the jury award ceremony for the winners. We encourage brass bands from Pomerania and the Baltic states to submit their nominations for the contest.
