A fanfare is a short piece of music played by trumpets and other brass instruments, frequently accompanied by percussion, usually for ceremonial purposes. The term is also used symbolically, for instance of occasions for which there is much publicity, even when no music is involved.
In 1958 Bert Haanstra made a film about the fanfare world, see Fanfare (film).
