Vondelkerk

A Ceremony of Carols

Benjamin Britten's hugely popular Ceremony of Carols is an unusual composition for high voices and harp. Variety is the key word here, as each song has such an identity of its own. If anything shows Britten's genius for writing for voices, it must be this work.

Stile Antico - Heading towards Christmas

The entire Christmas story is shown. The musical tradition of the Renaissance is so rich that a masterpiece was composed for almost every event. Stile Antico takes a selection from the scores of composers such as Schütz, Praetorius, Byrd, Victoria and Lasso. 'It is never a good idea to miss a concert by this British vocal ensemble,' wrote the New York Times, 'there are no better singers of old music.'

Tolhuistuin

Jarrod Dickenson

Texas-born, Brooklyn-based singer-songwriter Jarrod Dickenson makes authentic Americana songs that are sung straight from the heart. Dickenson never really planned on a career in the music industry, but after high school the now multi-instrumentalist started jamming with friends on guitar, and songwriting became more serious as the years went by.
