WORLD CARILLON CONGRESS ANTWERP – BRUGES 6/29 – 7/6 2014 Protective Committee World Carillon Congress Antwerp/Bruges 2014 Herman Van Rompuy, President European Council Kris Peeters, Minister-President Flemish Government Joke Schauvliege, Flemish Minister of Culture Cathy Berx, Governor Province Antwerp Carl Decaluwé, Governor Province West-Flanders Luc Lemmens, Representative for Culture - Province Antwerp Myriam Vanlerberghe, Representative for Culture - Province West-Flanders Bart De Wever, Mayor of the city of Antwerp Frank Bogaerts, Mayor of the city of Lier Renaat Landuyt, Mayor of the city of Brugge Roland Crabbe, Mayor of the city of Nieuwpoort Jan Durnez, Mayor of the city of Ieper Philip Heylen, Vice Mayor for Culture of the city of Antwerp Mieke Hoste, Alderman for Culture of the city of Brugge Jef Verschoore, Alderman for Culture of the city of Ieper Joachim Coens, Managing Director MBZ Paul Breyne, General Commissioner for the Commemoration of World War I in Belgium Dear congress participants, Tsar Peter the Great was inspired by the sound of the carillon in the low countries. Japanese tourists are fond of this instrument and two of the world’s most famous carillon- neurs come from Antwerp and are playing now carillon also abroad, one in St. Petersburg and one in Lake Wales, Florida. The carillon is an instrument of the world and thus it feels like the world of the carillon is coming home in our city. The city of Antwerp is greatly honored to host the World Carillon Congress 2014. Our city has a fascinating carillon history, which goes back to the end of the 15th century. In the middle of the 17th century, the tower of Our Lady Cathedral had even two carillons, both of the famous Hemony brothers. Today, Antwerp is still the proud owner of one of these instruments, the so-called city carillon. When it became clear that the carillon needed a restoration, the city administration has not hesitated to make sure that the instrument is in perfect condition to be played by you during the congress. The mechanism has been renewed and a new carillon key- board is installed, for which the historic 18th century carillon keyboard from Museum Vlees- huis served as an example. This cultural heritage is again secured for the next generation. We are also proud to present - for the first time in the history of carillon, and especially for this congress - a temporary exhibition with the historical carillon manuscripts from all over the world. Within the busy schedule of this congress, perhaps you will also find the opportunity to get acquainted with the rich cultural life of our city. With the sound of the carillon vibrates also the sound of a large port, full of cultural and economic entrepeneurs with a heart like diamond and a memory as big as our port. We wish you a warm welcome in our city! Philip Heylen, Vice Mayor for Culture, Economy, City Maintenance and Property Management , City of Antwerp Dear congress participants, The city of Bruges is proud to welcome you on the occasion of the 18th World Carillon Congress. After some busy and interesting days in Antwerp, visits to Lier, Leuven, Newport and Ypres, Bruges is the last carillon city in this program. We offer you a wide range of activities where the carillon with its history is central: a modest exhibition of valuable and unique relicts, documents that go back to 1290! You have free en- trance to all of our city museums and, of course, we offer you opportunities to listen and play our historical Dumery carillon. We wish you pleasant and interesting days in our city and we hope that you will continue to remember your stay in Bruges with the best memoires. Mieke Hoste, Alderman of Environment, Animal welfare, Socio-cultural associations, Tourism organizations and Zeebrugge-bad.
