“Mâäk develops a natural tendency towards the unclassifiable. We are constantly looking for thousands of life forms, of which the most as possible connect on all levels of our activities. It’s about accepting that our music, despite all our reflections and additional work, is created on the spot, while it takes form and spreads itself. It’s also about realizing that all our paths are different. And from the tensions that arise from these differences we make use to construct new paths together. That way, at the end of our journey, we are able to propose the public another vision and sentiment towards the concept of a concert.” 
Laurent Blondiau – artistic director

Mâäk’s Spirit is Belgium’s longest existing avant-­‐gardist jazz collective, with a big range of different international collaborations and projects, with Mâäk Quintet being the core of the collective and the starting point of all the other projects. Mâäk is always seeking adventure, plays acoustic, loves unconventional places to play and interacting with the audience.
