The music of Franz Schubert still moves and inspires. The Belgian collective SPECTRA and tenor Thomas Blondelle present Eine schöne Müllerin, a modern reinterpretation of Schubert’s profoundly beautiful Die schöne Müllerin. The performance sketches the timeless story of a young person searching for a future, security and love, with euphoric dreams and painful disappointments that affect everyone.

Composer Daan Janssens transports you on a voyage of discovery through the famous classical song cycle, with a contemporary twist. Schubert’s melodies become your guide, sometimes vibrant and lively, sometimes as a silent undercurrent. Janssens interweaves these sounds with the profound texts of Fernando Pessoa, imbuing dreams and illusions with a fresh perspective.
