A musical legacy
reawakened

This series pays tribute to its storied heritage, seamlessly blending timeless classics with the energy of vibrant new talent. With performances by renowned artists such as Tatiana Samouil, Marie Hallynck and Jean-Claude Vanden Eynden, the Astoria Concerts honour a rich musical legacy. An extraordinary season of unforgettable performances awaits.

Reimagining tradition

Founded over fifty years ago, the Astoria Concerts quickly became a symbol of musical excellence in Brussels, captivating audiences in the historic Waldorf Hall. For three decades, these concerts shaped the city’s cultural identity, spotlighting rising talents and celebrated artists. Now, this legendary tradition returns in the beautifully reimagined Salon Elisabeth, ready to inspire a new generation of music lovers.

Sunday 14 December

Quatuor Coudenberg

Four distinguished musicians, Joanna Huszcza and Mélanie Pelé (violins), Tony Nys (viola) and Ageet Zweistra (cello), come together as Quatuor Coudenberg, an ensemble dedicated to historically informed performance on period instruments. Named after the former Coudenberg Palace, they honour their deep connection to Brussels and let its heritage breathe anew through sound. Their work brings precision, sensitivity and a vivid sense of history to the string repertoire in a moment where tradition, resonance and artistic insight meet.
