Banging original tunes from the 18th century

WÖR

WÖR, Folk, Musette, Bagpipes, Folkband, concergebouw Brugge

presented by Pieterjan Van Kerckhoven (bagpipes, musette and saxophone), Bert Ruymbeek (Accordion), Jonas Scheys (guitars), Fabio Di Meo (baritone saxophone) and Jeroen Goegebuer (fiddles and mandoline).  

 

WÖR (pronounced ‘were’) is a band of five musicians whose curiosity, passion and talent has led to a niche goldmine of melodies in stunning contemporary arrangements. With their finely textured arrangements WÖR injects new energy into 18th-century melodies from the Flanders region of Belgium. Their music shines an inventive spotlight, with a modern twist, on the melodies in these manuscripts.

 

"In spite of the so-called ancient music, the madness, sensuality and energy of WÖR's arrangements are 100% contemporary music. Everything is played with the heart and the desire to share and give happiness to the audience." - 5 planetes

French Baroque music with a twist

Bourdon Collectief 

presented by Bart Van Troyen and Pieterjan Van Kerckhoven.

 

"Drone Collective" because it is the drone, together with the continuous sound of the melody that defines our concerts. Not well known, but central to this setting are the two musettes, also known as musette baroque or musette de cour as it was a very popular instrument in 17th and 18th century France. Many composers wrote for this instrument and it is our mission to present their music in an authentic instrumentation.
