"Belgium", 2nd concerto for violin, piano and string ensemble
Throwback to January 5th 2024, Bozar : Concert for the start of the Belgian Presidency of the EU. The Prime Minister of Belgium, Alexander De Croo, commissioned this composition that I wrote for this occasion, for which I'm very grateful. Being able to perform this in a full house, in front of our Royal Couple (Belgische Monarchie Monarchie belge Belgian Monarchy ), our complete federal government, president of the European Council Ursula Von der Leyen, etc.. was a great honor for me. Enjoy this video of the world premiere of "Belgium", my 2nd concerto for violin, piano and string orchestra, starring the phenomenal Lorenzo Gatto on violin solo, his fantastic ensemble Karavan Vivaldi and yours truly on piano.
