In 2004, its purpose was completely transformed and is nowadays based on two aspects: •
High-level training in six disciplines (singing, violin, piano, cello, viola and chamber music) with the assistance of Masters in residence. There will be six names in classical music working with the chapel and its young musicians: •
José Van Dam (singing) •
Augustin Dumay (violin) •
Maria João Pires (piano) • Gary Hoffman (cello) • Miguel da Silva (viola) •
Artemis Quartet (chamber music) •
Professional involvement by means of a network of cultural partners in Belgium (Bozar, Flagey, Monnaie, major orchestras, etc.) and partners from all over the world (France, the Netherlands, Switzerland, Spain, Austria, Japan and the EU). 200 concerts were produced, coproduced or initiated by the chapel. The Music Chapel collaborates with some of the orchestras across the world including the National Orchestra of Belgium, the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra, London Chamber Orchestra, Kansai Philharmonic Orchestra and the Sinfonia Varsovia, amongst others. It has thus become an actor in musical life and a flagship institution through its connections with orchestras, festivals and broadcasters, locally and abroad. Every year, the Chapel takes more than 50 talented young people in residence, Belgian and foreign. The chapel's budget is currently €4 million per annum. 85% of it is financed by the private sector (foundations, companies, private sponsorship, own receipts) and 15% by public subsidies (Federal scientific policy, Ministry of Education, Wallonia Brussels Federation, etc.). The Music Chapel is supported by many cultural patrons and sponsors:
Belgacom,
ING and Ginion Group are its main sponsors. == Architecture ==
