Reimagining tradition

Founded over fifty years ago, the Astoria Concerts quickly became a symbol of musical excellence in Brussels, captivating audiences in the historic Waldorf Hall. For three decades, these concerts shaped the city’s cultural identity, spotlighting rising talents and celebrated artists. Now, this legendary tradition returns in the beautifully reimagined Salon Elisabeth, ready to inspire a new generation of music lovers.

Pianist Marie François presents a refined recital dedicated to a selection of Frédéric Chopin’s Nocturnes, bringing together their lyrical elegance, poetic intimacy and subtle virtuosity in a programme shaped entirely by one of the piano’s most iconic voices. Internationally recognised for her artistry and musical honesty, François brings clarity, expressive depth and natural sensitivity to these masterful miniatures, offering a programme that balances introspection with quiet brilliance.
