About us

From its home port of Bruges, string orchestra BRYGGEN boldly sets course for the North, along the routes of the Hanseatic League, all the way to Scandinavia and the Baltic. In search of new sounds and connections with cultures all around the world. With unified forces, now moving against the current, then harmoniously bathing in the tranquillity of immeasurably deep fjords.

B-Classic – Festival Beroert (1)

Sat — 29/11/2025 20:15 Minderbroederskerk St-Truiden

B-Classic and CC de Bogaard invite you to a three-day musical exploration through time and space. Festival Beroert nestles in the centuries-old heart of Sint-Truiden, where sounds make the walls resonate and music takes on new forms. Classical scores are cracked open, distorted, recomposed and merge with other worlds. Heritage becomes more than a backdrop; it becomes a sound box that allows the past to vibrate into the present.

On Saturday, Nov. 29, the sounds of BRYGGEN will fill the vaults of the Minderbroederskerk. Tales from the Woods searches for the fragile space between tradition and innovation, between stillness and movement. The intimate sounds of Grieg and Pärt intertwine with reworked traditional melodies.
