Early bird price 16 euros Een Belgische concert pianist who makes the invisible audible during every performance. Marie François comes from Hechtel-Eksel and is a fiery force at the piano. With eighty-eight keys and ten tireless fingers, she builds stories that reach further than the instrument and takes her audience into a world where music becomes storytelling. Her energy is infectious and sometimes almost impatient. Her debut album ‘Eclectic/Being Me’ from 2019 was selected in the global top 10 two weeks after its release. Currently, she is developing ‘De Seizoenen’ by Tchaikovsky in collaboration with Vonk & Zonen, a 360° multimedia project.
