SEPTEMBER 28 2013_Ghent (BE) Odegand By Night w Jef Mills @ ST Anna Church

On 28 September 2013 the world of classical music will be interwoven with nightlife during the first edition of OdeGand By Night, the nightly variant of the event for world music, jazz and classical music OdeGand (14 September) and also the closing act of the Ghent Flanders Festival. 

During OdeGand by Night – a collaboration between Ghent Flanders Festival and John Roan (Arsenal), the curator for this occasion – six unique locations in the centre of Ghent will be transformed into music clubs. Here, renowned classical composers will plunge into nightlife, electronica wizards will douse their beats with some symphonic dressing and young talent from several other artistic disciplines will be taking the stage. Expect DJ sets with an orchestral flair, classical ensembles with electronic influences and Bach sonatas with contemporary visuals. 

The showstopper of the night is American techno pioneer Jeff Mills. During his performance ‘Light from the outside world’ he will bring purified versions of his club classics in the St Anne church in cooperation with the Flanders Symphony Orchestra conducted by Christophe Mangou. This church was hidden behind scaffolding for years, but during OdeGand by Night you can admire it in its full glory. 

In short: OdeGand by Night does not only offer an adventurous musical route, but also an amazing city itinerary straight through the centre of Ghent. 

OdeGand by Night will take place on Saturday 28 September 2013 from 8 p.m. 
Tickets: €18 FNAC: 0900 00 600 (€0.50/min) / UITBUREAU GENT: 09 233 77 88
