Musica Divina 2026: Liesbeth Devos & Gwen Cresens In Vino Vero

Since time immemorial, wine has made the arts flourish. Poets, composers, painters all found inspiration in the glass. Wine stands for conviviality and pleasure, but also for passion, melancholy, and even a touch of misery. Intoxicating, bitter, soft, or sparkling: wine as a reflection of life itself? Does truth lie in the glass? Sopraan Liesbeth Devos and accordionist Gwen Cresens dive into the rich musical heritage from the Renaissance to today, in search of melodies in which wine flows abundantly. Van Monteverdi, Purcell, Eccles and Landi to Barbara and Luis Mariano: every glass of music tells its own story.
