LA NOUVELLE HARMONIE BRUXELLOISE d ACCORDEONS
BIO The Harmonie d accordeons de Bruxelles was founded in 1912. Ninety years later, Piet Maris and his bunch of accordeon maniacs created a new band of accordions. After a few rehearsals, they played in public for the first time and
full force (33 participants) on the 25th of May 2002, on the occasion
of the Zinneke Parade, in Brussels. Part of the Nouvelle Harmonie Bruxelloise d'Accordéons played on the recording of Più Lontano on the album Barricade by Jaune Toujours. As a result of that, they were invited to play with Jaune Toujours at some of their concerts: at the Halles de Schaerbeek in Brussels, at the airbag festival in Bruges and at het Opening Week of the new KVS in Brussels. Memorable moments of 2006: the live recordings of the new live album of Jaune Toujours at the Ancienne Belgique in Brussels, a concert at the Dranouter Folk Festival and in Bollène. A tour in the Netherlands was to remember in 2007. You may expect a repertoire typical accordion - revisited and made dynamic - tangos, waltzes, bourrées, Balkan repertoire, ska and much more...
