Breaking: Paris takes over Munich concert banned in Belgium

Breaking: Paris takes over Munich concert banned in Belgium

Message received:

Following the cancellation by the Flanders Festival of the Munich Philharmonic’s scheduled concert in Belgium, the Théâtre des Champs-Élysées and its General Director, Baptiste Charroing, confirm that the concert with the orchestra in Paris on Tuesday, September 16, will go ahead as planned. The Théâtre des Champs-Élysées and its Director express their support for Lahav Shani and for all the members of the German orchestra.

That’s remarkablt swift in a concert world which books events three years in advance. Shows how shocked many people are by the stupidity, cowardice and prejudice exhibited by the Belgians.

Well done, Baptiste Charroing (pictured).
