Jef Lambrechts is an organiser of sound. He is convinced that music remains to be discovered—that it’s still hidden. By cultivating organising as an art form, he seeks to evoke new ways of study and nurture an artistic community often overlooked within commercial and institutional contexts. He has been tied to several organisations, including Les Ateliers Claus and Meakusma, and is the co-founder of In vitro, a project space and event series dedicated to promoting contemporary (experimental) music and sound art through live performances and occasional discursive events.

For this 64th edition of Second Sunday’s listening session, Jef will share influences that stem directly from his drive to set up such events—a short history, if you will, perhaps uncovering a few answers to the “why” along the way. Or not.

Cocktail of the month: Pisco Sour

Second Sundays is a monthly series initiated by Q-O2. Each session a new guest is invited to share an insight into their own listening, playing and speaking about a selection of sound and music that is important to their thinking or practice. The sessions try to put value on listening to recorded music in a social setting as a space for discussion.
