Breath of life
CAROUSEL
Annelien Van Wauwe turns heads all around the world as both a clarinet player and fervent yoga practitioner. In an interview for the BBC, she said: “There is this big cliché where people think you sit on a mat, say ‘om’ and forget everything around you. But an important part of yoga is about the life force.” This breath of life is the focus of Musica Divina’s closing concert. Culminating in Wim Henderickx's clarinet concerto Sutra, inspired by the principles of yoga. The composer wanted to conduct this concert himself. In Lier, the town of his birth, and in the Jesuit Church that he was so fond of. His kind soul left us too soon, but the breath of life still flows through his music.
