The elevenoclockmass is a new concept developed by De VELINX and B-Classic in which classical music in the broadest sense of the word meets the ultimate lecture – a sermon. The backing band will be joined by a celebrated solo musician and an equally esteemed speaker. With regard to the speaker, we have resolutely chosen to highlight the feminine perspective – men have been allowed to preach for centuries, after all.
The B-Classic house band consists of the following musicians: bassist Martijn Vanbuel, pianist Maarten Lingier and guitarist Tim Finoulst.
