The Sint Joseph Sittard Symphonic Wind Orchestra is one of the ensembles of the Limburg Music Association, founded in 1899. Since its beginning, this association has focused on transmitting the joy of music and is especially aimed at young people. Every year, five to ten new members join the association and currently the entire association has 200 members, of whom more than 20% are under 21 years of age. This recruitment and education concept has been chosen as an example of successful concepts included in the national database of the Royal Dutch Federation of Music Ensembles. The credo of the association is “Sint Joep; since 1899, but more alive than ever”. The ensemble consists of an eighty-piece symphony wind orchestra led by conductor Björn Bus. There is also a slightly smaller forty-piece student orchestra, a percussion ensemble /Slasj/ and Paek Laef Bend. Four orchestras, each with its own level and musical style.
The orchestra performs in traditional parades and processions, but also holds its own concerts both locally and in many national and international performances.
