The word of the President (07/2005)

, by Andrew Knight, Michel Possoz

Early this year I talk about the new youth of our harmony. Youth means dynamism and I want to proof that with the number of concerts of this year 2005 will raise to 14 including 5 in Evere.

We can thus testify with pride, of the reputation acquired by our musical phalange outside from the limits of our beautiful commune. In north, as in the south of the country, we are more and more solicited.

This is thanks to body spirit which motivate, with constancy beiing present at rehersal, the eclectic choices of our chief as regards programmed works, that you meet, Chef and Musicians, followinf feeback from various audiences. Many ovations collected and (A) - claimed (A) are the demonstration.

Chief and Musicians, your President is proud you, and you can be as much, you well deserved.

Bioul, Grand-Hornu May 1st, the Festival of the music on June 19 and Fernelmont on July 3rd are only part of those examples the unconditional ones of the music d’Harmonie are waiting. And why not others, altogether?

You are in the good way! Continue and your reputation will exceed soon the borders of our dear Belgium. this is, one of " MY " phantasma !

Unfortunately, all is not always spring of joys and rejoicings.

The Harmonie is also a great family which can be reached by the misfortune of trough one of his menber.

Our flutist Claudine Latache-Mawet knows, and supports courageously, a true drama following the accidental death of his old Cédric son hardly 18 years. We were several with being present at the time of the funeral. But beyond these moral support and expressions of sympathy, I would like to say to our friend musician, that is all of his/her colleagues which takes part in his pain, and she can count on them to support her in its sad and unjust test.

Remain how the time do’nt stop and which all we must deal with the course of this time !

I wish you, with all the resting holidays, to take again forces, because 9 services are still with the program of this year.

A proud President of his musicians
