June Highlights

For a night of celebration

27 June – Xenakis’ Persephassa & Lander Gyselinck’s HiHats in Trees
The Henry Le Bœuf Hall transforms for one special evening where rhythm knows no bounds. First, Les Percussions de Strasbourg perform Xenakis’ Persephassa, a 360° immersive piece with six percussionists surrounding the audience. Then, witness the world premiere of HiHats in Trees, where Lander Gyselinck blends percussion, electronic and jazz into a unique live experience.

30 June – Staging the Concert: Sammy Baloji – Le père sauvage
In its third edition, Staging the Concert features two original creations: one by Pytshens Kambilo on Pan-Africanism, and another by Szymon Brzóska. Conceived by Sammy Baloji, the evening echoes the 65th anniversary of Congo’s independence, exploring the link between Victor Horta’s architecture and colonial history.
