Chaves Academy of Arts Wind Orchestra received the title “Alto Tâmega and Barroso Ambassador
The Intermunicipal Community of Alto Tâmega e Barroso (CIMAT) delivered, on Saturday, October 8th, the title “Ambassador of Alto Tâmega e Barroso” to the Wind Orchestra of the Academy of Arts of Chaves (AAC).
The ceremony took place near the Alto Tâmega e Barroso Tourism Office, in Chaves, and this distinction happened because CIMAT considers that the AAC Wind Orchestra meets the requirements to receive the distinction of 2nd “Ambassador of Alto Tâmega e Barroso”, after being consecrated with the title of “World Champion”, won in the world championship “World Music Contest”, last July, in Kerkrade, Netherlands. Besides this title, it also has in its history a large number of awards, both national and international.
The AAC Wind Orchestra joins Jorge Braz, National Futsal Selector, who was the first to obtain this distinction, on April 26th. Out of the country, Jorge Braz made a point of recording a congratulatory video to the Orchestra.
Recall that the purpose of the network of Ambassadors of Alto Tâmega and Barroso is to recognize the value of citizens/entities from the territory that in various areas of activity have had a path of excellence, keeping the pride in their origins and having as principles the humility and the ability to overcome.
This distinction of “Alto Tâmega e Barroso Ambassador” also contributes to strengthening the networking that, together with many other initiatives undertaken by CIMAT, have increased the recognition and value of the brand “Alto Tâmega e Barroso”.
