sleeping concert recap
A third edition of slapen met wadi came much sooner than anticipated. 

On the night of May 18-19, 2024, during Antwerp Art Weekend, we had the pleasure of tailoring our sleeping concert to the unique setting of the church space at Extra City, at their request. Celebrating its 20th anniversary, Extra City hosted a remarkable 20-hour non-stop program featuring performances, exhibitions, and workshops.

For this occasion, the improvisations by Joachim Badenhorst, Inne Eysermans, Tsubasa Hori, Indrė Jurgelevičiūtė, Elke Van Buggenhout, and Jens Vydt engaged in dialogue with the acoustics and distinctive context of the venue.

We’ve recognized a strong interest in preserving some of the music from these concerts. Each night is fully recorded, and we are currently exploring ways to remix the live material and make it accessible again. We will keep interested individuals updated on the development of this process.
