Sometimes the nicest, most coveted and most universalist-minded awards come from small places: we received one this Sunday after our concert in Roeselare: The International Willaert Award…!
Very happy and proud with it, and in the nice company of the other laureate Katelijne Schiltz, who wrote that fantastic book on polyphony and riddle culture (see the image below).
There was a very touching laudatio by Xavier Vandamme (we are going to post it too very soon) and we couldn’t dream of a nicer finissage of our Ex Nihilo CD tour!
Thanks to Hilde Cuyt of Cultural Center De Spil and her technical crew, to the cultural councillor Mieke Vanbrussel, to Tine Eeckhout of the Cultural administration, and all the locals involved in receiving us with so much hospitality.
Especially thanks to our singers (here all on the picture) who are the true plastic force of our artistic project!
