A New Musical Experience at KBR Museum<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
Home to an astounding 300 exceptional manuscripts from the Library of the Dukes of Burgundy, the KBR Museum offers visitors a captivating journey through the cultural, artistic, and intellectual life of the region from the 14th to the 16th century.

Musical Legacy<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
The 14th to 16th centuries were a period when the Netherlands made a profound mark on the musical landscape. Just as the Flemish Primitives left their mark on painting and illuminators did on manuscripts, composers, singers, and musicians built international careers, working with the courts of popes and emperors. Their contributions brought renown to our regions!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In the coming months, visitors will be able to explore the musical life of the era and experience the museum through the sounds of polyphonic music. With a new polyphonic installation within and around the museum, KBR is providing a stage for medieval music masters. This endeavor is in collaboration with the Alamire Foundation, the International Center for the Study of Music in the Netherlands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A Temporary Closure with a Lasting Impact<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
To bring this installation to life, the museum will temporarily close at the beginning of 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
