The funds raised will go to our non-profit making organisation (Trio Khaldei, vzw), to be put towards the recording and production of our CD.

Total Budget : 10.000€ (Crowdfunding + apport en fonds propres)

This budget will be divided into the following categories :

The Recording (4.500€)
The recording location is of prime importance in classical music as this directly influences both the sound and the spirit of the recording. We are lucky to record our CD in Studio 1 in Flagey, which has an ideal acoustic for this repertoire.
The quality of the recording is also of utmost importance. Our sound engineer will attend for the four days of recording as well as the few days of editing, mixing and mastering.

The Formatting (900€)
The difference between buying an album online and having a real CD is the pleasure of possessing something tangible.
This part of the budget will cover the visual element of the CD:
- The design of the booklet
- The pictures and image rights
- The text of the booklet, including the translation into 3 languages (FR, NL, EN)
- The text will be written by Pieter Bergé, musicologist at KU Leuven

The Production (4.200€)
As well as the CDs sold by Paraty, we are pressing 1000 CDs for our (non profit-making) organisation. These will go to you, the supporters of this project; to concert organisers for the promotion of the trio; and also for sale at our concerts.

The advertising (400€)
If we reach the goal of €5000, we’ll make a video clip to advertise our CD on social media.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS________________ _ _
We would especially like to thank Flagey and Nicolas Callot without whom this recording would not be possible.
Our sincere thanks go to you, the music lovers, who are supporting us in this great adventure. We are extremely grateful for your backing, and look forward to sharing our passion for music with you at our concerts and through our forthcoming CD !

Barbara, Pieter and Francis
