‘Het Collectief’

Het Collectief is one of the most exciting chamber music ensembles in Belgium. The group has developed a unique sound over the years, with a fascinating mix of wind instruments, strings and piano. In its repertoire, Het Collectief walks familiar and less familiar paths from the 20th century. In its new programme entitled Fiftieth Anniversaries of Madness, it concentrates on the musical antics of 1918 and 1968, under the influence of the Dadaist and surrealist movements. The point of departure of this slightly theatrical presentation is the inevitable return of the madness in 2018. Research has proven that the madness is revived every fifty years... Information or pure speculation? We’ll let you decide.
