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.
