Bozar

Cantania rehearsals are in full swing at Bozar! 🎶 Today, the Henry Le Bœuf Hall came alive with the voices of hundreds of primary school pupils, rehearsing for the much-anticipated Cantania closing concert. After months of preparation in their classrooms, these young singers finally stepped onto the grand stage to bring their songs to life. Accompanied by the Belgian National Orchestra, the children gave it their all, filling the hall with energy, joy, and music. Their dedication — and that of their teachers — is truly inspiring. Save the date: 7 Saturday June 2025 Join us for the grand Cantania concert and witness the magic of these young voices uniting in harmony!

“The EU is now about to discuss and decide on its future policies affecting culture from 2025 onward, as well as on its multi-annual financial framework for 2028-2034. The existence of these policies and programs carries a fundamental and symbolic message to the rest of the world. For the EU is perhaps the only region that actively supports transnational creations and co-productions, as well as the mobility of artists from all backgrounds, including those in exile.” - Christophe Slagmuylder, CEO and Artistic Director at Bozar 👏 Happy to host the 2025 edition of the Cultural Deal for Europe annual policy conversation! #CulturalDealEU #CultureCompass @glennmicallefmalta @CultureActionEurope @EuropaNostra @EuropeanCulturalFoundation @NelaRiehl @Martacienkowska @EuropeanCommission @EuropeanParliament

A Harmonious day at Bozar: Cantania Workshop with teachers from across Belgium. 🎶 Yesterday, the Rotonde Bertouille at the Palais des Beaux-Arts came alive with energy as 27 primary school teachers from both French- and Dutch-speaking Brussels schools joined forces for the Cantania workshop. This 'Train the Trainer' session had a dual purpose: - To prepare teachers to sing the next Cantania performance. - To equip them with tools and techniques to teach the songs to their pupils in class. What is Cantania? Cantania is a unique project that culminates in a heartwarming concert at the Henry Le Bœuf Hall, where primary school pupils and their teachers perform together. Accompanied by the Belgian National Orchestra, this festive closing concert brings the magic of music to life, celebrating the dedication and creativity of both pupils and educators. Join us on Saturday 7 June 2025 for the Cantania closing concert. Let’s fill the Henry Le Bœuf Hall with applause and cheer for these incredible children and their inspiring teachers!
