| Forum 19h15-19h45 Cello and Piano Duo |
|
| Emmanuelle Ginsburgh and Fabian Coomans propose to travel from north to south and from east to west through various styles and periods. These two musicians are driven by the desire to transmit classical music beyond the traditional norms and limitations of concert halls. Playing as a duo allows them to adapt to all sorts of contexts in order to diffuse the music in unexpected pathways and to surprise passers-by, to experience authentic musical emotion with them. |

| Forum 20h-20h30 Contemporary Dance by Imao Cie |
|
| Choreography, artistic reflection, surpassing oneself, well-being, solidarity, confidence, power... So many words carried by 9 young people aged 16 and 17 and their teacher-choreographer,Lydia Mboko. Together, they form the young troupe Imao Dance Cie which was created in 2022. For this evening of September 21, we will follow their dance evolution at the heart of the Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium, by their taking up space, by their exploitation of heights, connecting with certain works, by going deep into the relationship with the body and the carnal, by bringing softness and poetry into these mythical spaces... |

| Forum 21h10-21h30 ‘Détourner l'objet’ (Divert the object), piano solo |
|
| Fabian Coomans explores his instrument and its detours, whether by playing his instrument in an atypical way or by adding other objects and sound sources to it. His project is to find wonders in incongruous encounters, to drive to marvel at the encounter with ... a small harmless music box, a thimble and a piano as one would a sunbeam passing through a drop of dew. |  |

His work is articulated on 3 mains axes; -1. The fun side, where he creates with 2nd hand objects, he has fun, invents without ever taking himself seriously, -2. The movement with objects that move, with light effects and interactive art pieces that public can self operate. -3. Absence of limits where he explores many techniques, intertwines them, where he lets himself be inspired by everything around him and enjoys working with different materials (paper, cogs, fabrics, etc.). The result is a production full of poetry, pleasure, sensuality and second degree. |
