Broes
Belgica
In 1897 the vessel 'Belgica' was launched for the grand expedition. They sailed from Antwerp through the tumultuous waters of seas and oceans, passing exotic places such as Rio de Janeiro, Madeira, and Montevideo. In 1898, the Belgica reached the northernmost part of the Arctic Peninsula. Unfortunately, they became trapped in the ice in Antarctica, forcing them to winter there for 15 months. In this fascinating story, Broes drew inspiration for their new album: the places the Belgica passed, the melting pot of cultures on board, but also the emotions the crew must have felt: undoubtedly sometimes a sense of homesickness and despair, but primarily wonder and ecstasy.
