Dans un monde en évolution permanente et dans une ville aussi diversifiée que Bruxelles, la musique a le pouvoir de rassembler les gens.

À la faveur d’une série de “Talks”, l’AB et la KU Leuven examinent les défis sociétaux et cherchent des solutions à travers le prisme de la culture musicale et nocturne.

Les réseaux sociaux : un fléau ou une bénédiction pour le secteur musical ? Nous tenterons de répondre à cette question lors du prochain KU Leuven x AB Talk. La conversation se déroule en anglais.
