ECCO Concert

On Wednesday 24 may 2023 at 20:00

Le Senghor - Brussels

ECCO Concert (European Contemporary Composers Orchestra) organized by the Forum de la Création Musicale and Sturm und Klang with the support of the Creative Europe program.

Le Senghor 366, Chaussée de Wavre, 1040 Brussels Belgium

A unique opportunity to discover the rich universe of Ziv Cojocaru (Israel, student of Philippe Leroux), the playful energy of Moritz Eggert (Germany), and the intimate poetry of Henrik Strindberg (Sweden). Along this diverse sonic journey, the ten musicians of Sturm und Klang also present two creations by Belgian composers, Sarah Wéry and Christian Klinkenberg, dynamic and unconventional figures in our musical landscape. While the ensemble has previously performed two creations by Sarah, this marks the first collaboration with Christian.
