Boho Strings Antwerp is a Belgian string ensemble founded by conductor David Ramael and violinist Jessica Tortorice. Known for imaginative programming, the ensemble uses music to deepen our understanding of what it means to be human and to create shared experiences across different perspectives.

Praised by Gramophone for its “dynamism and unanimity of response,” Boho Strings Antwerp has appeared in leading venues including Bozar (Brussels), deSingel (Antwerp), Concertgebouw Brugge, De Bijloke (Ghent), Flagey (Brussels), and De Roma (Antwerp), and internationally at festivals such as Murten Classics (Switzerland). The ensemble is currently preparing major international touring projects.

Boho has developed a distinctive artistic profile through concept-driven productions such as In Deep Silence and Echoes of a Theme, placing contemporary works in dialogue with the classical repertoire. Rather than presenting music as historical artifacts, Boho approaches it as a living artistic document that speaks directly to the present and invites audiences into a shared experience.

Beyond the concert stage, the ensemble creates projects that connect music with broader human and social questions. Boho collaborated with journalist Phara de Aguirre on the VRT documentary Vibrato. Leven met Parkinson, developed with the Vlaamse Parkinson Liga, exploring the relationship between music and life with Parkinson’s disease.

Boho Strings Antwerp also brings the insights of musical collaboration into the business world through its Listening Leadership workshop, presented internationally for organizations including Stolt Tankers, the Baden-Baden Unternehmergespräche, and John Cockerill.
