Celebrate 35 years of concerts, experimentation and sheer enjoyment with the KCB percussion students. Torch is more than a concert: it is both a festive look back and a leap into the future. After 35 years, percussion teachers Gert François and Bart Quartier are passing the torch to a new generation of percussionists. And they are ready to show what they can do.
Karlheinz Stockhausen, one of the great innovators of the twentieth century, shares the stage with contemporary composers such as Andy Akiho, Gene Koshinski, Alejandra Viñao and Bart Quartier. From Kontakte to Chinese opera, from marimba duo to Konnakol, the students take you on a journey through surprising styles, ensembles and musical worlds.
