I Solisti del Vento

Etienne Siebens 'artist in residence' at I Solisti del Vento

After a few busy months with concerts at deSingel Antwerpen, Bozar Brussels, Handelsbeurs Gent, Concertgebouw Brugge, Paris, Bremen, Lincoln Center New York,... I Solisti del Vento has, now more than ever, growing international ambitions. To encourage this growth and international appeal, artistic director Francis Pollet decided to surround himself with a number of experts within the field. Therefore Etienne Siebens will be joining the ensemble for the next 3 years as their new 'artist in residence'.

Etienne Siebens has been conducting the Prometheus ensemble for many years, he was the principal conductor of the Symphony Orchestra of Flanders, and has been conducting many orchestras and ensembles such as the Rotterdam Philharmonic Orchestra, Klangforum Wien and the Asko/Schönberg Ensemble. Within I Solisti del Vento he will be co-designing the artistic discourse, and ascertain the high level of quality orientation. Last but not least, Francis Pollet has empanelled a 'board of artistic counsels' who will reflect on the future and guide the ensemble to more exciting pathways into the future.

	The Flemish wind culture in general is anyhow on an extremely high level. When you select the brightest talents out of it and put them together in a homogenous ensemble, you inevitably get a mondaine group. Just like I Solisti del Vento. I hope their music, with the help of that ‘wind’, will be shouted from the rooftops and tooted around further and further!
