J’ai le plaisir de vous inviter aux prochains "Moments musicaux", lundi 5 mai à 13h 25 à la Chapelle de la Résurrection.
Parmi les artistes invités, Manon Allain-Launay, une jeune pianiste française, qui depuis l’an dernier a réduit de moitié son horaire à la Commission européenne afin de suivre les cours de musique à l’IMEP, à Namur. Elle nous jouera le Prélude et Fugue en la mineur de Bach.
En seconde partie, Hana Rihovsky et Slavi Metz, deux charmantes soeurs/violonistes réunies il y a quelques années à Bruxelles par leur travail joueront ensemble la Sonate de Bach avec le soutien d’une amie violoncelliste américaine, Elisabeth Schell.
Comme d’habitude, le café sera servi à partir de 12h 45. Venez avec votre sandwich et rencontrez les autres amateurs de la musique qui partagent cette langue universelle, la musique!
Au plaisir de vous revoir!

Our good friend Rudi mailed me a link to this video. I posted it back in September 2006, on the old blog. That’s before some of you were even born, so here it is again.
Of course, the skater looks flash, but it’s the poor sods who had to line up the bottles who deserve the credit. There’s a lesson in there somewhere, if I could only figure it out.
Girls play the harp and flute while boys are stuck with the tuba and trombone, according to research which suggests that school orchestral sections are strongly divided along gender lines.
Although the authorities have concentrated on tackling sexist attitudes in sport, the study shows that stereotypes are just as prevalent in music classes, with the "smaller, higher-pitched instruments" and singing lessons being overwhelmingly favoured by girls, while boys, although reluctant to learn any instrument, tend towards electric guitars, drum kits and music technology classes.
Some 90% of harpists are girls, as are 89% of children playing the flute. In contrast, 81% of guitarists are boys and 75% of drummers. The smallest gender differences are in African drums (an increasingly popular option), cornet, French horn, saxophone and tenor horn.
Over the last fifteen years, the French Accentus ensemble, led by Laurence Equilbey, has become one of Europe’s most renowned choruses. At Ars Musica, together with musicians from the Orchestre National de France, they will be performing a programme of religious works by Anton Bruckner, Olivier Messiaen, György Ligeti and Pascal Dusapin.
PROGRAMME
Anton Bruckner, Motets (Os Justi, Christus factus est, Ave Maria, Virga jesse) Olivier Messiaen, O Sacrum Convivium (1937) György Ligeti, Lux aeterna (1966) Pascal Dusapin, Umbrae mortis (1997) & Dona Eis (1998)

Au même programme, Ayman Jarjour, guitariste renommé dont le récital à Carnegie Hall lui a valu une « standing ovation », nous jouera des œuvres classiques de Granados, Sor, et De la Maza.
