Sint-Karel conquers Flagey!

On sunday the tenth of june the famous concert hall Flagey hosted the final performance of the El Sistema Festival, ‘Comme ci, Comme ça’ (This way, That way). Pupils of primary schools representing the 3 national languages (from Molenbeek, Schaarbeek, Elsene, Laken and Eupen), together with the Brussels Philharmonic Orchestra, paid homage to the well-known composer Leonard Bernstein and his ‘West Side Story’.
The pupils of Sint-Karel were not only to be found in the choir. 10 of them learned to play the violin this year in wednesday-afternoon music classes. They had the opportunity to share the stage and play along with the professional musicians of the Brussels Philharmonic Orchestra!
