A JOURNEY INTO THE UNIVERSE - February 4th., 2024
A dizzying cosmic adventure.
A Journey Into The Universe is a collaboration (originated during the Covid captivity) between composer Pascal Coppé and soprano Françoise Vanhecke. The West Flemish duo has created a concept in which vocals, electronic music and images are woven together into a fascinating whole.
During the concert you will be immersed in a fascinating world with idiosyncratic vocals that also partly consist of improvisation. The electronic sound textures create dreamlike and enigmatic atmospheres. Pascal Coppé is not only responsible for the beautiful compositions, but is also for the captivating images that accompany the music. It will undoubtedly be an exceptional coffee concert, because for once Sint-Baafs-Vijve is the center of the universe.
Sunday, February 4th., 2024, church of Sint-Bavo, Sint-Baafs-Vijve

February 2nd, 2023 - Performance lecture
ISFV® Inhaling Singing is a revolutionary singing technique developed by the polyvalent vocal artist (soprano), Inhaling Singer, pianist, actress, improviser, soundpainter Dr. Françoise Vanhecke PhD. Her new singing technique makes a renewed artistic contribution to expression for the vocal music of the 21st century and is illustrated with results of collaborations with composers such as Annette Vande Gorne, Steef Verwée, Sebastian Bradt, Willy Van Buggenhout, Klaus Burger, Pascal Coppé as well as Irma Bilbao.
These new sounds of the human voice within the context of the role of expressiveness in the musical landscape for the music of our time and its impact on the contemporary artistic platform fit perfectly within this festival with the theme 'The voice' and will certainly fascinate and captivate singers, composers, pedagogues as well as musicologists.
Her scientific research into acoustic, physical and physiological characteristics of inhaling singing compared to normal exhaling singing have led to several scientific publications such as the "Journal of Voice".

- Matthieu Lebrun is a musician based in Bergerac, Dordogne. His singular and adventurous approach is done through several mediums (saxophone, clarinet, rap, synthesizer, field recording, recording of hertzian waves...). For nearly 15 years, he has participated in projects in the field of current, contemporary, improvised and experimental music. He collaborates very regularly with Frédéric Tentelier (La Barque Théâtre) and we could hear him with the Grand Orchester Muzzix in the creation of Radiolarians by composer Michael Pisaro-Liu. He is also a composer.
- Dr. Françoise Vanhecke PhD, soprano, ISFV (inhaling singer), pianist, actress, composer (Irma Bilbao), singing teacher, improviser, soundpainter and researcher covers a very wide repertoire using the widest and most unsuspected possibilities of the voice, she is sought after for her artistic versatility and her personality on stage both in the great classical and romantic works and in the music of today. By working in close collaboration with composers, she has created more than 300 works. Considered one of the best interpreters of contemporary classical music, she is on the bill of major music festivals and theaters around the world. Françoise Vanhecke has recorded for various labels.
