Information and reservations

Literature &amp; Music at MuziekSalon Spronk.
In October, the new season of Literature &amp; Music will start again.
Throughout the month, the focus in story and music is on a book.
Sometimes 'classics' and sometimes books that buzz around you so much that you absolutely have to read them.
The live music with cello (Astrid Schijns) and piano (Jetje van Wijk) tries to enhance the atmosphere and expressiveness of the book with carefully selected pieces, creating an organic whole. The narrator is Jetje van Wijk.
During the first edition of this season, the most recent book by Stefan Hertmans, 'DIUS', will be central. You do not need to have read the book.

About DIUS When the young artist Dius rings the door of his ten years older university teacher of art history, Anton, and offers him his unreserved friendship, everything in their lives begins to shift.
Both are sensitive souls with a desire for the space of the polders, for sublime painting, beauty in music and art, and a different time…
It is an extraordinary novel about friendship and vulnerability and the enchanting world of art. 
 
‘.. Hertmans’s words creep under the skin,
they express the trembling of feelings….
A small miracle because only great writers can do that. Hertmans is one of them…’ Le Monde
