Casco Phil has long performed on concert stages at home and abroad. But in 2024, for the first time they will take their musicians on a long-term concert trip across national borders. They will tour the Baltic states and proudly fly the Belgian tricolour in Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania. Musically, anyway. Because with Luc Van Hove’s Diabelli Veränderung and Wim Henderickx’ Only Darkness and Shadows, this will be a concert with some (entirely justified) compositional chauvinism.

The Casco Phil combines these works from their own country with music from their Baltic neighbours like Arvo Pärt and Peter Vähi and the timeless works of Beethoven. They reach yet another milestone for their ensemble with this international tour. Thus, they are not only reaching higher, but also spreading their wings further.

Program:

Ludwig Van Beethoven – Egmont ouverture & Symphony n° 5
Peter Vähi
Wim Henderickx – Only Darkness and Shadows (with poems by Triin Soomets)
Arvo Pärt
Luc Van Hove – Diabelli Veränderungen
