Palazzo - Creative Workspace

At DAS HAUS, we love the moment the room collectively leans in. Karski meets Noury: an electric conversation is made for the mixed crowd, sofas pulled close, and music that doesn’t pretend the last 200 years didn’t happen. Beethoven is there … not on the music stand, but as something alive in the room, with a string quartet holding the thread and an electric guitar ready to mingle.Fragile and stubbornly luminous, Beethoven’s Adagio from String Quartet No. 15, Op. 132 is the anchor of the night— the one he wrote as a quiet thank-you after getting his health back. The Karski String Quartet steps into the ring with Clément Nourry’s raw, improvisational guitar language: clear classical lines meet electric colour, and fragments of rock DNA dark-pop mood that nods to The Velvet Underground and Depeche Mode. What you get is a live dialogue that feels atmospheric and slightly risky, the kind where you suddenly hear something you already knew.The Karski String Quartet formed in Belgium in 2018 and has been turning heads ever since with playing that slips effortlessly from Haydn’s elegance to the sharpest new repertoire. Violinists Kaja Nowak and Natalia Kotarba, violist Diede Verpoest and cellist Julia Kotarba first locked in at the Resonances Festival Academy, picked up the Grand Prize and Alumni Prize at the Triomphe de l’Art competition in Brussels, and have since worked with mentors like David Waterman while holding artist residency at the Queen Elisabeth Music Chapel. Named after Jan Karski, the WWII resistance hero whose compassion cut through darkness — the quartet treats every concert as an act of connection. Right now they’re in residence at DAS HAUS, using that time to answer Nourry’s sounds with their own improvisations and electric interventions.Clément Nourry has been a quietly influential presence on the Brussels scene for over twenty years, bending post-romantic melody, jazz fluency, blues bite and rock pulse into something unmistakably his own. After starting on horn, studying mathematics and earning his jazz guitar master’s at the Koninklijk Conservatorium Brussel, he moves just as comfortably as sideman for Kris Defoort or Nicolas Michaux as he does leading the atmospheric power-trio Under the Reefs Orchestra and the droney textures of Yokai. Tonight his iconoclastic, sometimes dreamy, sometimes gritty electric world slides straight into Beethoven and refuses to play by the usual rules.This is why we still gather in small rooms in Brussels: to watch music change shape in real time and leave carrying a few new frequencies in your chest. Come for Beethoven, stay for the electricity.

We recommended taking public transport, as the venue is very accessible. The nearest tram stop is Koningslaan (Avenue du Roi), which accommodates tram lines 81 and 97 and bus 48. Bus lines 49 and 50 stop close to the venue as well, at bus stop Zweden (Suède) or Drukkerij (Imprimerie). This bus stops also accommodate tram line 82. If you come from outside of Brussels, you can get off the intercity train at Brussels-Midi (Brussels-South) train station. Palazzo is an eight minute walk from there.
