History & Mission: |
A a brand new Bach festival on 12 November, 2018, organised by B'Rock together with KASK and the Royal Conservatory: The Happy Bach Festival! For a whole day, B'Rock and musician-friends focus on J.S. Bach. This time you won't hear passions, cantatas or motets, but instrumental pieces such as the famous cello suites and the Goldberg Variations (BWV 988). From pure to kooky. From traditional to edgy. From Baroque to contemporary! What would you think of a concert for just ten people in a special music tent? Come and have fun at this unforgettable festival packed with small-scale concerts in every corner of the Conservatory in Ghent. In between you can enjoy delicious snacks and food trucks. |
