With an intercultural, international and inter-institutional association between German and Brazilian musicians and cultural institutions that is unique in Germany, since 2011 the “Brandenburg-Brazil“ project promotes intensive cultural exchanges between Brazil and the federal state of Brandenburg.

Numerous Brazilian orchestra musicians, soloists, guest conductors and composers from all over Brazil have been welcomed in Potsdam and other cities of Brandenburg such as Oranienburg, Falkensee or Bad Belzig and return to their home country as ambassadors of a lively, modern Brandenburg that is rich in culture. In addition, it was possible to premiere Gisbert Näther's (1948-2021) concerto for trumpet and orchestra in Campinas (Brazil) and to send orchestra musicians to participate in concerts in Brazil.
