Oekener Festspiele 2026: Film Music
La Chapelle Sauvage - Oekene-Roeselare
Program Info: ' Oekener Festspiele ', with a nod to the 'Salzburger Festspiele', stands as the Prädikat of Cultural Operation 'Oekene Invites'. Just not like in the Mozart city of Salzburg with 'Music & Drama', but accessible well-known popular classical music, also classically orchestrated contemporary songs and film music, interspersed with serious 'difficult' compositions, precisely to introduce the general public to them. 'Oekener Festspiele' is also intended as an overture to the local folk Gardeboe festivities , i.e. ' emotion and enthusiasm ', ' seriousness and joy ' or the ' yin and yang ', two opposing forces, together as a whole permeated by all aspects of life, creating a harmonious experience that appeals to both the mind and the heart. The event provides a unique opportunity for people of all ages to come together, enjoy music in all its facets, and make new cultural discoveries, further strengthening the community and fostering a love of art and culture.
Oekener Festspiele 2026 is getting a new vibe! Serious and also easily digestible music. An unforgettable musical journey with La Chapelle Sauvage, conducted by Karel De Wilde, brings with 18 professional musicians a fresh, contemporary concert evening with the most beautiful film music — live, intense and closer than ever. Although not so much the film version but the concert version. Those who only know this music from films often hear only short fragments or musical themes that follow each other in quick succession. During a live concert, however, these compositions are given the space to come into their own. In this way, you will discover the richness, emotional depth and refinement of the music in a much more intense and intimate way than ever before. The programme includes a haunting selection of film music and contemporary classics, complemented by other hypnotic compositions by Max Richter and Ludovico Einaudi. In the intimate setting of the church of Oekene, this concert promises to be a unique experience full of emotion, nostalgia and pure musical magic. An evening for lovers of film, virtuosity and passion — don't miss this special edition of 'Oekener Festspiele'!
