Conductor Oscar Jockel explores the potential of an orchestra scattered throughout the hall: distance shifts into proximity, sound turns fluid, and movement reshapes the listening experience. Musicians, instruments, audience—everyone breathes and sounds differently. An experience that grounds you in the here and now.
Commissioned by the Brussels Philharmonic, William Dougherty is composing a new work for orchestra and electric guitar, physically and aurally dissolving, blurring, and reshaping the boundaries between acoustic sounds and electronic noise.
With the LAB-SERIES, the Brussels Philharmonic brings together musical experimentation, interaction, and total experience. Expect bold and eclectic concert nights with unique programmes, pre- and post-concert talks, interactive installations, and immersive listening sessions.
