Last year, Matrix [Centre for New Music], in collaboration with Kunstenpunt, launched de toonbank. The counter brings together concerts of new music in one well-organised calendar. It also publishes weekly articles offering additional insights and you can subscribe to their weekly newsletter.
De Toonbank relies on intense cooperation with a wide range of cultural players in Flanders and Brussels, including Bozar. MATRIX [Centre for New Music] is responsible for the development, management and maintenance and also contributes its own content. Kunstenpunt supports the project in word and deed. The concert calendar is compiled on the basis of the UiT database and currently contains more than 150 concerts.

To kick off the new season of contemporary music and creations, we shared our Meet & Greet video with Radouan Mriziga. For this season's first Staging the Concert, the choreographer was guided by the stories surrounding the Palace of Fine Arts. Together with the Belgian National Orchestra, he uncovered them on 18 September in an evening of minimal music, dance and poetry.
