19 / 20/ 21  MaY 2022 - Maison de quartier Malibran

For this fourth edition, EKHO presents a large exhibition of contemporary violin making during the semi-finals of the Queen Elisabeth Competition, cello session.

The exhibition is bringing together the violins, violas, cellos and bows of some fifty makers from all over Europe and America.

In order to foster links between craftsmen and musicians, all these instruments and bows will be freely available for testing and comparison.

This year, Ekho wanted to put the spotlight on the productions of talented women luthiers and bow makers. A special feature of EKHO#4 will be the participation of two women with international reputations in their respective fields, the cellist Sonia Wieder-Atherton and violin-maker Andrea Frandsen, whose active and inspiring involvement will further our understanding of the role of women in music and instrument-making and how it has evolved over the centuries.
