<div>Piano Composer FestivalOp vrijdag 26 april 2024 vindt in Gent de 1e editie plaats van het Piano Composer Festival. Drie gerenommeerde Gentse pianist-componisten (Matthias De Jaeger, Pieter Savenberg en Mattias Devriendt, ) fungeren als curator-uitvoerder van dit uniek evenement. Tijdens een gezamenlijk concert zullen ze elk hun mooiste werken vertolken. Een unieke samenwerking, een verrassende muzikale ontdekkingstocht, een meeslepend en feeëriek concert. 1 ding hebben de 3 pianist-componisten gemeen: ze componeren allen toegankelijke hedendaagse neoklassieke muziek die je meteen doet wegdromen. Toch zijn ze elk heel apart. Ze componeren en vertolken elk in een andere stijl. Hoewel hun muziek telkens voor zich spreekt, kan je hun stijlen als volgt omschrijven: Matthias De Jaeger “Writing stories, filling the air with poetry. My fingers are a pencil, the piano my paper aeroplane.” <a href="http://www.mdj-pianist.com/?fbclid=IwAR06LUlZBg_mHRoKPJEv7GgFBDYxZot9JucWMpyu5SOeCDWBNGrPw23EQyQ" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">www.mdj-pianist.com</a> Pieter Savenberg “Beauty in simplicity.” <a href="http://www.pietersavenberg.com/?fbclid=IwAR1GOgJOhqQtrhgu-iQkYnqqle1iUzhQJhe7-kBHhULuFIiRz4a5yjgSkTw" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">www.pietersavenberg.com</a> Mattias Devriendt “offering people emotional depth through peaceful music” <a href="http://www.mattiasdevriendt.com/?fbclid=IwAR1NnUCXYrVotv2CkU_pWNjxRe438VeyI3qDxmlSclPLkUV1ZCQd1GQL_f0" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">www.mattiasdevriendt.com</a> Als pianoliefhebber mag je dit evenement niet missen.</div>

Seven people arrive at a remote medical facility to take part in a clinical drug trial. All of them young and broke, doing it for the money. The trial is supposed to be routine, but from the first night no one can sleep. They stay awake for days on end without even feeling tired. But on the fourth night the effects start to wear off, and when the first of the group finally falls asleep, they suffer a horrific death. The others must now come to grips with the drug's terrifying side effect: if you fall asleep you die. With the facility locked down for 24 hours and all communication cut off, they have no choice but to stay awake until help arrives. But as time drags on, one by one they succumb to sleep and death, and their chances of survival seem slim. They need a leader, and troubled loner Claire is gradually drawn out of her isolation and forced to step up. With paranoia taking hold and the group starting to turn on each other, it's left up to Claire alone to keep them together, find a way to escape, and somehow manage to stay awake.

The Ghent University Museum (GUM) and Botanical Garden will take you on a quest for the truth. This exhibition provides an answer to questions such as: What is true and what isn’t? What do we really want to know? Does absolute certainty exist? What is the role of science in this regard? Does a museum always tell the truth?
The GUM confronts big names and young talent from the art world with exceptional research from home and abroad and intriguing science projects in which you can participate live. In the Wunderkammer of TRUTH, you (might) learn all about the truth. The exhibition is definitely worth a visit.
