Nocturne at noon - Heritage Day 2021
Heritage Day "The Night" in the Koninklijk Conservatorium Brussel
Sunday 25 April 2021 - from 12.00 to 17.00
Ever dreamed of visiting a library by candlelight? To experience the atmosphere of Umberto Eco's novel "The Name of the Rose" in real life? And to discover nocturnal scores in the meantime? It is all possible on the upcoming Heritage Day.
Moveover, it is your last chance, because in a few years the current library building will disappear.
At the same time, you can visit the exhibition "Italian Opera in Brussels". This exhibition focuses on the rich Italian opera collection of the library and shows some unique masterpieces.
To add to the theme "The Night", artist Kris Gevers has been invited to exhibit his recent paintings. His theme is particularly well suited to the night and darkness, but, as befits great art, has even more layers of meaning.
Entrance is free, but, due to corona, reservation is required on bib.kcb@ehb.be.
Let us know with how many people you want to come and propose also a time slot. Every half hour a new time slot will start. Your reservation is valid after receipt of a confirmation.
Duration of the visit: ca. 30 minutes.
Address: Regentschapsstraat 30, 1000 Brussels.
