august&walter

Bonnie&Clyde, Nicole&Hugo or Jansen&Janssen.
All good things in life come in pairs.
This fall we have a golden duo of our own: August&Walter.
A series of six evenings pairing up our brand new August (Förster grand piano) with one of Walter’s favorite piano players.

S: Boo!
W: Boooo!
S: That was the worst thing I’ve ever heard!
W: It was terrible!
S: Horrendous!
W: Well it wasn’t that bad.
S: Oh, yeah?
W: Well, there were parts of it I liked!
S: Well, I liked alot of it.
W: Yeah, it was GOOD actually.
S: It was great!
W: It was wonderful!
S: Yeah, bravo!
W: More!
S: More!
W: More!
S: More!

So you want more? Treat yourself a ticket for one of the concerts or go wild and take a subscription for the whole series.

W: "Yeah, whadya think?"
S: "Beats sitting home watching television."

Ai!

Stijn Cools had to cancel the first concert in the A&W series on the 13th of October. We'll be happy to welcome him, Alan Van Rompuy and Thomas Jillings on another occasion, when all the Cools extremities are working properly again.

But what a A&W 1bis can we present to you!

Solo on our Förster? The one and only Peter Vandenberghe. Keyboard companion for Teun since late 90s in Flat Earth Society, Anja Kowalski Trio, Too Noisy Fish and in this series even more impressive: it's thanks to this golden advice of Peter's that we got connected with Thomas and Kint Pianos and the beauty of the Förster Grand Piano 215. So what better occasion to thank Peter than with a blind date with this brand new instrument. Have fun!
