Waalse Kerk (Wallonian Church)

Yuletide Treats met Duo Pleyel

Yuletide was originally a Germanic midwinter festival, but is now often used as a synonym for the Christmas season, which extends from Hanukkah, via Christmas, to Epiphany. There was a time when it was mandatory for almost all artists to make a Christmas album. After all, one successful Christmas hit meant an annual goldmine. With their new album 'Yuletide Treats', Duo Pleyel, consisting of pianists Alexandra Nepomnyashchaya and Richard Egarr, embraces this tradition. During this concert in the Waalse Kerk, they will treat you to the greatest classical hits that are inextricably linked to the magic of Christmas.

Orange Skyline

The music of the four-piece Orange Skyline sounds more British than British, but make no mistake: this four-piece indie pop band comes from Groningen. Their story reads like a boy's book: the band was formed during a long car ride from Amsterdam to Groningen, after the last Oasis concert in our country.

Bach op Vrijdag: Bach & Händel

Chamber choir PA'dam and De Waalse Kerk present some of Bach's most beautiful cantatas in the series "Bach on Friday". During each concert, one cantata is central and Bach is always presented in a different light. Start your weekend off right with perhaps the greatest composer who ever lived: Johann Sebastian Bach. What about female composers in the Baroque? How did contemporaries Bach and Handel relate to each other? Get to know Bach and gems from other composers better with chamber choir PA'dam and the Nicolaas Consort. In a carefully composed program by artistic director Maria van Nieukerken and organist Wim Dijkstra, you not only get the opportunity to enjoy beautiful music, but you also learn more about the composers themselves. With live musical examples and explanations by an expert, the music comes to life!
