MUS-E Belgium
This project took place during an autumn holiday with two groups of 5 to 9 year olds at the GC de Rinck local community centre in Anderlecht, Brussels.
Immersed in a captivating week of artistic exploration, the children delved into the theme of ‘I am there, I am not there.’ Guided by the multidisciplinary artist Jeroen Smets, they ventured into the mesmerizing world of self-made instruments, uncovering the rich tapestry of sounds. Simultaneously, Vanessa Minacapelli brought the magic of stop-motion and video to life, adding an extra layer of enchantment to this vibrant creative odyssey.

ConcertWithYou & UNESDA SOFT DRINK EUROPE
Marianne Poncelet, Executive Vice-Present and co-founder of the International Yehudi Menuhin Foundation in Brussels, comments: ‘’We are delighted to establish this cooperation with UNESDA Soft Drinks Europe to strengthen our mission to support the next generation of talented artists. Making our societies more inclusive and united is truly transformative and music is a powerful tool in achieving it. We are grateful to UNESDA Soft Drinks Europe for its commitment to promote artistic excellence and give new artists the chance to contribute to our society with the sound and power of their music. With this partnership, we demonstrate that we can drive change together and make a positive difference in the lives of several artists.’’
Concertwithyou was born from the need to support musicians who can no longer perform on stage. The pandemic has exposed artists to precarity and giving a voice to musicians who are voiceless is one of the priorities of the International Yehudi Menuhin Foundation. You can support this initiative by making a donation to help musicians produce videos of live performance.
