This report comes from Belgium, the host country of our next IAML Conference. Marie Cornaz: Ma participation à la conférence de Vienne cette année restera sûrement un des événements marquants de ma carrière depuis mon arrivée à la direction des collections musicales de la Bibliothèque royale de Belgique en 2007.
The Music Department of the Royal Library of Belgium holds the largest collection of scores by the famous nineteenth-century violinist and composer Henry Vieuxtemps. To revive this heritage the Royal Library of Belgium has launched (amongst others) an online exhibition on the life and works of Henry Vieuxtemps. The exhibition gives a chronological survey of his career and features numerous unpublished documents including autograph scores, letters and illustrations. Available languages: French and Dutch.
