Ensemble in residence: Zefiro Torna

In 2025, Lunalia will be more rooted in Mechelen than ever, as the ensemble in residence will be Zefiro Torna. Since this musical collective was founded in 1996, it has been characterised by its innovative concepts. And that makes it the perfect match for the dream edition of LUNALIA. During Lunalia, Zefiro Torna will present a number of special projects, including Time Crawls, Somnia, Bach Mirrored, and Balsam. In addition, two muses of the ensemble will also be heard at other concerts: Elly Aerden at Lunalia Lift Off and Els Van Laethem in the context of Coro by George De Decker. More information.
