12.02.25, 20:00, Hum., Pierre Bastien & Casper Van De Velde

Pierre Bastien creates mechanical constructions that produce sound. Instruments that hardly look like instruments, but with the necessary acoustic amplification they can produce amazingly musical sounds. Bastien composes for them and makes music with them. Whether in a duo or as a concerto grosso, his violin and trumpet merge with his self-made orchestra into a unique symbiosis.

Casper Van De Velde — known from Schntzl, Donder, An Pierlé Quartet and more — is without a doubt one of Belgium’s most acclaimed drummers. In addition to his versatility as a performer, he also completed a two-year research project on electro-acoustic music at the AP Hogeschool. Whether in a duo, trio, quartet or solo, a musical adventure is always guaranteed.
