La Fanfare Wagnerienne & Les Synthétistes
In 1894 François-August Gevaert founded the Fanfare Wagnérienne to learn to play the new Wagnertubas for the historical performance of Wagner’s Das Rheingold. Since no repertoire yet existed for this new form of orchestra, composers such as Paul Gilson and August De Boeck were sought out to do their bit. When seven of Gilson’s students gathered together in the composers collective Les Synthétistes during the interwar period, they inherited their master’s love of wind music. The result is a unique collection of modern repertoire for large brass ensemble, here performed by the combined forces of students from KASK & Conservatorium, and the Brussels and Antwerp Conservatories.

This year's programme includes Georg Friedrich Handel's tragicomic Serse (1738). Florian Heyerick is the musical director, Benoît De Leersnyder will direct. Onrust spoke to both teachers. There was room for roguish smiles, but a more serious wrinkle also occasionally cleaved their foreheads. We tackle them in that order.

Student Benjamin Windelinckx was found to be a master of composing music. At his graduation concert, he performed the majority of the scenes of his first chamber opera.
