Eglise abbatiale de l'Abbaye d'Orval Orval n° 1, 6823 Villers-devant-Orval Belgium
The concert will bring to a close the celebrations organised by the Orval Community to mark the Jubilee Year commemorating the return of the Cistercian-Trappist monks to Orval in 1926. The works of Kris Oelbrandt and Maurice Duruflé will take centre stage, in a dialogue between spirituality, tradition and contemporary musical creation.
