Zaza Desiderio live in Genk

Experience Zaza Desiderio live on November 6th

Zaza Desiderio is scheduled to perform at C-Mine, Genk, Belgium on November 6, 2026. Desiderio is a Georgian polyphonic singer and musician known for reviving and reinterpreting traditional Georgian folk songs and chants. Her style blends ancient vocal techniques with contemporary arrangements, often incorporating electronic elements and minimalist instrumentation to create a haunting and atmospheric soundscape. She frequently performs solo, showcasing the power and complexity of the Georgian vocal tradition, but also collaborates with diverse artists across genres.

C-Mine is a former coal mining site that has been redeveloped into a cultural and creative hub. Operations at the mine ceased in 1966, and after a period of decline, the site underwent significant transformation beginning in the late 1990s. Today, C-Mine features studio spaces for artists, a design museum (Europese Design Centrum), event spaces, and historical exhibits detailing the region’s mining past. The buildings themselves represent industrial architecture typical of the Limburg coalfields, with several structures now protected as historical monuments. The venue regularly hosts concerts, exhibitions, and other cultural events aiming to blend heritage preservation with contemporary artistic expression.
