We will still get to celebrate the opening of the Autres Mesures festival this Sunday with a concert from Ben Bertrand at the Musée des Beaux-Arts!

This Belgian bass clarinettist and composer uses loops and effects pedals to transform clarinet tones into electronic sounds and create a hypnotic musical journey. The world he presents is a fusion of diverse influences built around traditional and ancestral music, American minimalists like Steve Reich and Terry Riley, and even current electronic music. Ben Bertrand skilfully bridges the gap between extreme modernity and references to the past.
