 21 —27 MARCH 2022

On the (supposed) birthday of Johann Sebastian Bach –21 March– we once again celebrate Early Music Day! REMA –the European Network for Early Music– will be showcasing the best online performances not just on one day, but for an entire week. From 21 to 27 March, you can enjoy a fragrant bouquet of early music concerts, including our recording of Light & Shadow on Thursday 24 March at 7 pm. Our artistic director Lionel Meunier will be chatting along live!

Vox Luminis brings the enchanting story of The Fairy Queen to life in a new production. The ensemble thus writes a second chapter in its Purcell triptych, following the successful King Arthur series with concerts in Belgium, the Netherlands, Great Britain and France. The Fairy Queen draws its inspiration from Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream, a piece that also strongly stimulates the visual imagination. The brilliant voices of Vox Luminis will resound amongst a spirited shadow play balancing between reality and subconsciousness, a new project by artistic director Lionel Meunier and scenographer Emilie Lauwers, in cooperation with dramaturge Isaline Claeys and filmmaker Mário Melo Costa.

Performances in Barcelona, Oviedo and Bruges. More info in the Agenda
