Donne Domenica was founded in 1992 in Geel by conductor Christiane De Maeyer. Over the years she has put the choir's repertoire for women's choir on the map during numerous performances in Flanders and the Netherlands. At international choral competitions in Switzerland and Spain, results were achieved that were always at the top of the score list.
In 2012 Patrick Van Looy took over the choir direction, and the singing capacity was reduced to twelve singers. However, the high quality was maintained and this is shown by a renewed classification in the category 'excellence' as Donne Domenica achieved in March 2013 at the 60th Choral Tournament of the Province of Antwerp and later also in 2017.
In recent years, the choir has also performed in many concerts in Eindhoven, Kasterlee, Geel and Tielen, and in the Carolus Borromeus and St. Paul's Church in Antwerp, in St. Bavo cathedral in Ghent and in the Cathedral St. Salvator in Hasselt. On 17 March 2019 the choir sang a jubilee concert in the church of Zammel, with music by Vic Nees, Kristiaan Van Ingelgem, Lodewijk De Vocht, Zoltán Kodály, Gustav Holst, Frans Schubert and Johannes Brahms.
Donne Domenica is an enthusiastic choir that sings about the pleasure of singing and music. Partly because of this, the choir dares to tackle almost all genres and to bring them to a successful conclusion. Although the repertoire for women's voices is rather limited, there are always gems to be found that can be strung into a varied, surprising and pleasant concert programme.

Musical Strokes : Goethe in Music
The works of poet, stagewriter, scientist and philosopher Johann Wolfgang von Goethe have been a source of inspiration for many composers.
His texts and stories quickly spread across borders, so that, in addition to an enormous number of songs, many operas can be found based on the stories of Manon, Werther or Faust. This production, which is the result of two intense project weeks with singers and pianists from LUCA School of Arts, focuses on a study of this extensive, vocal repertoire.
Program : with a.o.

- Lied of Mignon
An exclusive collaboration with LUCA School of Arts, Campus Lemmens, Lemmensberg 3 - 3000 Leuven
Peter Jeurissen : Research / Piano accompanist / Vocal reading technique
In addition to being a vocal coach for the singing classes, Peter Jeurissen is also one of the clarinet class supervisors and a promoter of the bachelor and master theses on the Lemmens campus. He also teaches the subject of vocal reading technique.

'Kennst du das Land, wo die Zitronen blühn?'
Liesbeth Devos, soprano
Jozef De Beenhouwer, piano
Schumann, Mortelmans, Brahms & Schubert
‘Knowest thou where the lemon blossom grows?' Words from Goethe’s novel Wilhelm Meister's Apprenticeship, when the young Mignon evokes an idyllic but unreachable place. That about sums up the mood of this recital. Soprano Liesbeth Devos and pianist Jozef De Beenhouwer draw on the rich romantic oeuvre of well-known Lied composers such as Schubert, Schumann and Brahms, as well as that of the Antwerp composer Lodewijk Mortelmans, who is the focus of their most recent CD recording. For the lyrics almost all the leading poets of the time, from Heinrich Heine and Detlev von Liliencron to Eduard Mörike and Robert Burns to Walter Scott, signed... In short, a wonderful evening full of moonlight, forests, mountains, mysticism and heroism in love. The ideal moment for a dissection of romance.

Museum Vleeshuis | Klank van de stad
This autumn, Albert De Vleeshouwer (1864-1913) will be at the centre of the 'Wednesday Sounds' and the Treasury of Museum Vleeshuis.
But who is this forgotten inhabitant of Antwerp anyway, and what was his significance for Antwerp's musical life, the Royal Conservatory of Antwerp and Museum Vleeshuis?
In two lectures, Jan Dewilde (head librarian of the Royal Conservatory of Antwerp) and
Timothy De Paepe (curator of Museum Vleeshuis | Sound of the City) will answer this question.

- Lodewijk Mortelmans : Exaltation (Elegie nr. 2)
- Anton Bruckner : Symfonie nr. 4 in Es
Horn call, singing birds, mysterious forests, medieval hunting scenes. In composing his Fourth Symphony, Anton Bruckner let his romantic imagination run free. If one symphony embodies the 'romantic' longing for a pre-modern, untouched natural idyll, it is this one. Under the vault of the Antwerp Cathedral, Eduardo Strausser places Bruckner's sweetest, most melodious symphony on the pupiter. One thing is certain: with Strausser at the helm, the Fourth Symphony sounds like a soothing listening experience.

Bodenseefestival : Aufbrüche (Departures) - Piano recital
Hanna Bachmann, piano
Program :
- Lodewijk Mortelmans : Jeugd, Memories
- Ludwig van Beethoven : Sonate in c-Moll Op.10/1
- Peter Benoit : Suite Op.34 Nr. 3
- Sergej Prokofiev : Sonate in A-Dur Op.82
Two unjustly forgotten Belgian composers of late romanticism are to be discovered: Peter Benoit, revered by his fellow countrymen as the "father of Flemish music", and his pupil Lodewijk Mortelmans wrote incredibly atmospheric piano miniatures. The young Austrian pianist Hanna Bachmann combines these rarities with repertoire classics: first Beethoven, whose early Sonata op. 10 No. 1 seemed to his audience to be ingenious, but also a little bizarre. Then Prokofiev with his stunningly virtuosic Sonata op. 82. It was allegedly inspired by a musical novel by Romain Rolland, in which Beethoven's piano sonatas play an important role.

Muzikale grafzerken - Musical gravestones
Organisation : Amarant vzw
There's music in the Schoonselhof, and much more than you think. Did you know that many musicians and composers have found their final resting place at this Antwerp necropolis? Especially for the Antwerp Cemetery Week, music historian David Vergauwen highlights the incredible musical richness that lies hidden here in a unique tour, with special attention to the heritage of the Flemish composers, including Peter Benoit, Flor Alpaerts and Lodewijk Mortelmans.
Attention will also be paid to talented singers and musicians from the world of classical music, opera, folk and many other genres. Besides the symbolism of their graves and the special stories about their musical existence, there will also be pieces of music listened to, together with the guide. Dr. Tamara Ingels (chairman vzw Grafzerkje) will give a historical introduction about the meaning of Schoonselhof cemetery. This tour is part of the European Cemetery Week and takes place in collaboration with vzw Grafzerkje and Amarant vzw.

Course from 26-04-2019 till 28-06-2019
Belgian music of the 19th century
(1830-1920)
Between adoration and oblivionThe Belgians should be just about the least proud people in Europe when it comes to their own classical musical heritage. Names of great composers from Dutch music history are often only known because squares or streets have been named after them, or because they have a statue here or there. And even if we know names like Fétis, Gevaert or Gilson, we have to admit that there is little music that spontaneously comes to mind. Are we therefore not obliged to take a closer look at our own music history?
We are already taking up the challenge!
Belgium was able to occupy a unique place in European musical life: squeezed between France and the German-speaking world, its composers processed influences from both musical cultures into a unique mixture that might even be called "Belgian". In this course we will discuss national music, from the birth of Belgium in 1830 until the end of the First World War and its immediate aftermath. We sketch the portraits of a number of composers against the background of Belgian history and look for the cultural-historical value of the musical heritage that we can call our own. Along the way we get to know the oeuvre of composers such as: Guillaume Lekeu, François Fétis, François Servais, Henry Vieuxtemps, Joseph Ryelandt, Joseph Jongen, Adolphe Biarent, August De Boeck, Paul Gilson, César Franck, Lodewijk Mortelmans and of course not to forget: Peter Benoit.

The morning radio received an e-mail from 17-year-old Jens Backx, who read an article about pianist Lode Backx in a book about the "History of the Family Backx". He asked for more information about him and possible recordings. The VRT archive contains more than 100 recordings of Lode Backx. A great opportunity to invite Jens and bring that world-famous but forgotten Flemish pianist Lode Backx to the attention once again.

DE SINGEL
Pianomarathon
On 7 March, students of the Royal Conservatory of Antwerp will take part in a piano marathon with the theme 'Flemish composers'. It will be a varied concert, with various character pieces by Marinus de Jong and Mortelmans, songs by Lodewijk Mortelmans, Robert Herberigs and August De Boeck, Flemish dances for piano four hands by Jan Blockx, a sonata by Joseph Ryelandt, Peter Benoit's third fantasy, and much more on the programme.
Even more "fresh" Flemish piano music can be found in the recent Höflich editions. Since last year, SVM has been working on a project on unknown Flemish piano music from the nineteenth century, together with Labo XIX&XX, the research group of the Library of the Royal Conservatory of Antwerp. The project 'Vlaamse Vleugels - Flemish Wings': Unheard Piano Music on Contemporary Instruments' (2017) led to the publication of Nocturne in F (The Flemish music collection, vol. 2545) by Palmyre Buyst, Rondo capriccioso (vol. 2543), Pier-lala and Allegro agitato (vol. 2548) by Philippe Vanden Berghe, and Impromptu in A, Opus 6 and Caprice in F, Opus 8 for Piano Solo (vol. 2552) and the Sonata in C, op. 3 (vol. 2553) by Joseph Callaerts.
