us for an evening that visits from fragile Mimì and femme fatale Norina to Debussy’s reveries and Bernstein’s 10-year-old thoughts…and many more! All these in a warm and cozy place, Art Base in Brussels. Our program
owes its name to a poem by Mallarmé we both love and which immediately enchanted us…

Opera Project in two days
So, in two days at the Koninklijk Conservatorium of Brussels (Kleine Zavel) at 12.30 (free entrance) you can enjoy scenes from Le Nozze Di Figaro and Idomeneo by W.A.Mozart played by the students. On piano Mr.Jan Vande Weghe and on direction Mrs.Maja Jantar.
I play Ilia, the persian princess, now a prisoner in Creta, after the Trojan war, who falls in love with the enemy, the Greek prince Idamante. I had a great time preparing this role, not only because of the beautiful music and lyrics written, but also because Maja gave to the team an amazingly large amount of creative possibilities through body and voice improvisation. We worked together for 2 weeks, 5,5 hours every day and I will surely miss it after this Friday. So, see you there on Friday! 😉PS. Some pics from the rehearsal’s in my Tarja Turunen style coat! Hell yeah!!!
And of course, one family photo!
2 photos excel in competition
Loooong time no see. I have been going crazy over rehearsals for this week’s performance of Scenes from Idomeneo and Nozze di Figaro at the Royal Conservatory of Brussels on Friday while……… yesterday, my parents went to the award ceremony of the 5th Competition of Poetry and Photography organized by Municipality of Kordelio-Evosmos in Thessaloniki, Greece.
Good news by the way, this 2 photos made it to the awards!
Both shot in Antwerp.Discover more here and stay tuned, there is more to come!
