In this first part of Création Kabarnaüm, the Brussels-based sextet La Groovista will be the guest of honour. Their aim? To awaken the groove within you! These six percussionists share their energy, their exuberance and their joy. Passionate about song and rhythm, they compose and draw their inspiration mainly from Afro-Cuban, Brazilian, Beninese and Creole cultures. Through their own arrangements, they take on the trance rhythms usually played by men, blending tradition and innovation to create a subtle yet powerful result. La Groovista is a dazzling display of glitter, jubilation, presence and exhilaration. Surprise guests will add even more spice to the show.
The Création Kabarnaüm project was born out of the vision of Veronica Campos, a percussionist and coordinator of the BaRR (Bachelor’s degree in Rhythm and Movement) programme at the Brussels Conservatoire. She possesses the rare talent of bringing together artists from all walks of life around a vibrant fusion of dance, rhythm and infectious energy. With her, it is impossible for a concert to remain confined to a conventional or predictable format.
Conceived as a two-part event—which we invite you to experience in its entirety—this evening breaks free from the usual concert formats. A true artistic explosion, Création Kabarnaüm takes over heritage venues, makes the very stones vibrate and infuses them with a resolutely contemporary energy.
