TIRANA, Nov 11 /ATA/ – For more than two decades, the “The Door Albania” brass band in Shkodra has demonstrated how music can foster inclusion, social interaction and the development of skills among people with disabilities.
The band’s musicians have given a special performance of “Për ty Atdhe” (For You, Homeland), composed by Pjetër Gaci, a recipient of Albania’s “People’s Artist” title, under the direction of Bepin Vjerdha.
Prime Minister Edi Rama on Wednesday shared a video of the band’s moving performance, filmed against the scenic backdrop of Lake Shkodra as part of Albania’s red-and-black November celebrations.
Shkodra Municipality continues to support “The Door Albania”, founded in 2005 and currently led by Kastriot Faci.
The band began its journey with students and former students of the “3 Dhjetori” special school, aiming to give them an opportunity to take an active part in the country’s cultural and social life. It now has 22 members.
Through music, the performers have found a way to express not only their talent but also their emotions.
