25 April 2017, second Forestiade: see the programme and save the date!

After the success of the first Forestiade*, and to keep the Easter bells singing, we’ve managed to recruit more young talented musicians who will bring us a great programme on this occasion:

  • Emmy Wils (piano) Beethoven: Piano Sonata No. 23 in F minor “Appassionata”.
  • Thomas Van Caekenberghe, Charly Delbecq (barytone, piano)
    Shostakovich: 4 Romances on Poems by Pushkin; Lieder and folk songs by Diepenbrock, Brahms, Britten and Manuel de Falla.
  • Jeroen Vernimmen, Phyllis Bartholomeus, Emmy Wils (violin, cello, piano) Shostakovitch: Piano Trio No. 1
  • Esther Kouwenhoven, Elias van Dyck,  (soprano, piano)  Samuel Barber: vocal and piano works.
  • Josefina Enfedaque, Emmy Wils (soprano, piano) Frederic Mompou: “Damunt de tu només les flors”.

This romantic & 20th-century programme will be complemented, as usual, by any spontaneous contribution to the after-show. Come and bring your music with you!

Our musical evening will take place on a Tuesday this time, so we will start much earlier:
