Sound of Bruges

St. John's Hospital is the heart and soul of Bruges.

Built in 1150, it is today one of the oldest hospitals of the medieval period. Walking through its corridors, its rooms, its attics, discovering its chapel, strolling through its gardens, following the canals that border it, is both to offer a unique visual journey and to tell a whole part of the history of Bruges, guided by the music that has resounded there.

Falling somewhere between a documentary and a concert recording performed in the chapel of the Hospital, the film explores the rich musical heritage of this legendary place. Enjoy a mesmerizing journey that reveals the visual and musical magic of this historic place!
