🎺 𝗗𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗸𝗻𝗼𝘄 𝘄𝗵𝘆 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗲𝘁𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗶𝗻 𝗥𝗶𝘃𝗮 𝗱𝗲𝗹 𝗚𝗮𝗿𝗱𝗮 𝗶𝘀 𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗱 𝗙𝗹𝗶𝗰𝗼𝗿𝗻𝗼 𝗱'𝗢𝗿𝗼?

The term flicorno does not refer to a single instrument, but to an entire family of brass instruments. Their distinctive tone has always been one of the most recognizable features of the traditional band sound, even though some of these instruments are no longer part of modern band instrumentation.

It is to this very musical tradition that the Flicorno d'Oro owes its name. When the competition was founded, the name Flicorno d'Oro was chosen as a tribute to this heritage: a symbol of the band tradition and of a unique musical legacy that continues to live on in concert bands around the world today. 🎶
