In What We Trust: explanation

NON-MISS

Belief in two times and two tonalities is what you get to hear at In What We Trust. For this special, multimedia project, the music of Anton Bruckner clicks into a new score by Frederik Neyrinck.

After all, in the nineteenth century it was still simple: for all life's problems you knock on the church's door. Today, for young people, things are a bit different. What do they still believe in? How do they search for their place in this world? These crucial questions occupied the makers. Author Maud Vanhauwaert, video maker Bas Van Hoeck and composer Frederik Neyrinck himself travelled with six young people from the Ghent workshop LARF! from Noorderhoofd to Bruges. A challenging trek in which they tried to formulate answers to these complex issues along the way.

The video material from that journey is one of the pillars on which this new production rests. On the one hand, in the form of the stylised images of the pilgrimage; on the other, interviews were conducted with the young people in the evening. Their answers aurally cut through the music, ancient and brand-new.
