**Didier François** is a Belgian nyckelharpa virtuoso and composer whose musical journey beautifully bridges folk traditions with classical innovation. Known for his mastery of the nyckelharpa (a traditional Swedish keyed fiddle) and the viola d’amore a chiavi, François reimagines classical works like Bach’s partitas with a folkloric twist, as heard in his recent arrangements of BWV 1002. His releases, such as *Hélas mon bien* and *Folktone & Beet Hoven Polka*, showcase his playful fusion of Scandinavian folk dances, Baroque structures, and modern improvisation. A collaborator at heart, he’s worked across genres with artists like Wouter Vandenabeele and Els Van Laethem, breathing new life into centuries-old instruments. Whether reviving forgotten tunes or crafting fresh compositions, François’ music feels like a cozy, cross-temporal jam session between old friends.
