In the exceptional setting of the Nassau Chapel, surrounded by the manuscripts and artworks of the KBR museum, let yourself be carried away by the lute and voice of the ensemble. You, music, gothic vaults and some history: that’s all you need.

Michaela Riener (soprano) and Floris De Rycker (lute) are the pillars of the internationally renowned ensemble Ratas del viejo Mundo. The “rats of the old world” attach as much importance to the scores of famous composers as they do to popular music. The ensemble performs to sold-out crowds at major art festivals and their recordings are acclaimed all over the world.

Especially for the Nassau Chapel, Michaela Riener and Floris De Rycker present a very varied program based on unknown lute tablatures, folk music and polyphony from the early Renaissance, a time when our regions set the tone all over the world also musically.

This activity is supported by Alamire Foundation.
