Fred Hersch Trio live in Brussels

Experience Fred Hersch Trio live on October 16th

Fred Hersch Trio will perform at Flagely in Brussels, Belgium on October 16, 2026. The trio is renowned for its lyrical and harmonically sophisticated approach to jazz. Pianist Fred Hersch, a highly respected figure in the jazz world, leads the group, known for blending post-bop improvisation with elements of classical music and a deeply personal emotional resonance. The ensemble typically features upright bass and drums alongside Hersch’s piano, creating a dynamic interplay characterized by both sensitivity and rhythmic drive.

Flagely is a cultural center located in the Saint-Gilles municipality of Brussels. Originally constructed as a chapel (Chapelle de la Sainte-Famille) in 1936 by architect Antoine Ciroux, it underwent significant renovation and repurposing in the early 2000s. It now functions as a multidisciplinary arts space hosting concerts, exhibitions, theatre performances and community events. The building retains architectural features of its religious past while providing a modern venue for artistic expression. Its acoustics are considered particularly well-suited to chamber music and jazz performances due to its intimate scale and design.
