Maiden edition of Miksi brass band tournament a huge success.
The maiden edition of the Miksi Brass Band Tournament came to a successful end with the Cape Coast-based Adom Brass Band winning the ultimate prize. Cape Coast literally came to a standstill as the tournament was well received with massive participation from hundreds of residents in the Central regional capital.
Speaking to the media, Brand Manager for Miksi, Magnus Dey, said that the tournament had come to stay. “If you see the excitement that greeted this tournament, it only tells that we have to move it higher and make it better. Miksi will invest more in this tournament and see it grow. It is our way of reaffirming our commitment to promote and support the creative art industry.”
Mr Dey also disclosed the brand’s intention to involve the various Senior High Schools together with the communities to make the competition more attractive.
“There was so much energy, there was so much fire and we think that we should invest more in this event to keep the momentum up. In 2020 we will be rolling it in the Senior High Schools to help develop the talent of the young ones,” he added.
