Excmo. Sr. Presidente de la Diputación de Valencia

   Valencia again opens its arms to the greatest musical band competition in Spain - the Valencia International Music Band Contest. One hundred years of musical excellence has created a tradition that brings together the cream of Spanish and European bands. Over the coming days, we will all have the opportunity to enjoy great music - the most universal language in the world.

    Of all Spain, it is here in Valencia that this universal language is best understood and spoken. For this reason, Valencia hosts this great event.

    Valencia will be once again full of musicians, young and old, ready to step on to the stage and give the very best of themselves.

    So, it time again for the city to fall silent and let the music speak.
