Belgian Composers

Apple Music Classical

As we know it today, Belgium is a relatively young country, established following the 1830 Belgian Revolution. Yet it boasts a musical history stretching back to the Middle Ages. This playlist contains a mix of music by Flemish and Walloon composers, and even those who might not have identified as Belgian at all. From Renaissance greats to cutting-edge experimental works, Belgium has produced eclectic music across the ages.
