23:00 ORGAN & FILM

14 Sept.'19
- 23:00

Dive into the Brussels of yesteryear with the help of images and music. In collaboration with the Cinematek, BOZAR presents four short films from the archives where our capital takes centre stage. Inspired by the rhythm and the atmosphere of the projected images, Benoît Mernier will improvise a live accompaniment on the organ. Join us for an evening of strolling back through time, bringing together nostalgia for times past, amusing scenes and high points in the life and history of Brussels, all to the powerful and enchanting echo of the organ at the Centre for Fine Arts.
