”Flemish composers came out of the equation very positively, precisely because of their innovative impulses…showing a strong dose of originality and courage, which were fused in a very natural way. The sophisticated ritual for recorder, sculpture and projections (Parcours) by Annelies Van Parys and Anneleen De Causmaecker combined a thorough use of alternative techniques to give a very physically dynamic performance. ”
