Peace Instruments

Once the special brass sheet has been made it will be available to make valved instruments. This will expand the range of opportunities to support soloists and ensembles playing a variety of Peace Instruments, such as trumpet, French horn, cornet, saxophone, tuba and trombone. These can either be played as brass only or be part of mixed ensemble or orchestral playing involving stringed, percussion and wind instruments. It embeds the notion of peace within a wide range of instruments.

One objective will be to make instruments for a complete brass band. This feeds directly into the eye witness account in the Primo Levi section.

Research will also be carried out to see if other military related materials can be used to make non-brass instruments of a quality suitable for performances. Instruments would not be limited to a European tradition but would engage with music worldwide to echo the need for international peace.
