Stef Van Vynckt

Nico Muhly The Street, performed by Stef Van Vynckt

Stef Van Vynckt is a Belgian harpist whose artistry pushes the expressive boundaries of the harp, from delicate textures to bold, abrasive sounds and raw, punk-infused energy. His collaborations with innovative voices in new music—including Dai Fujikura, Leilehua Lanzilotti, Jason Eckardt, Christopher Cerrone, Alexander Schubert, and Elena Rykova—continue to redefine contemporary harp music. Performing with ensembles like Ensemble Modern and at renowned venues and festivals such as Bang on a Can’s LOUD Weekend at MASS MoCA, Classical:NEXT, and cresc… Biennale für aktuelle Musik, Stef brings a fearless, explorative spirit to every project.
