Film and live music - Olga Pashchenko + Jed Wentz - Der letzte Mann (1924)

Famous performer Olga Pashchenko plays a piano score compiled by Jed Wentz, as she previously did with Der Golem, Herr Tartüff and Nosferatu. When the film was released a century ago, she accompanies this gem by director FW Murnau with popular music. Der Letzte Mann is a film in which he conjures up big cinema from a small story, thanks to innovative camera work that would leave a lasting mark on cinema.

Arturo den Hartog & Mattias Spee - Spirituals

Enslaved Africans in the United States found strength and hope by singing spirituals, songs based on experiences of oppression and stories from the Old Testament. Many composers, such as the African-American composers Harry Burleigh and Moses Hogan, made arrangements for orally transmitted spirituals. In this concert, countertenor Arturo den Hartog and pianist Mattias Spee perform well-known and lesser-known spirituals in a program that ranges from sad and intimate to grand and festive.

Peter Beets and the New Jazz Orchestra: The Blues goes to Spain

Big band full of top talent explores the boundaries between jazz, blues and Spanish classical music. Pianist Peter Beets and his New Jazz Orchestra present a special combination of Spanish classical music and jazz. With music by composers such as De Falla, Albéniz, Turina and Mompou, supplemented with swinging excesses and adventurous improvisations. The result is a fusion of tradition and innovation that is both recognizable and surprising.

Baroque MILOŠ and Arcangelo

Call him the classical guitarist of our time, the Montenegro-born Miloš Karadaglić. Impressive technique, expressive playing style – a virtuoso with almost pop star status. He now transforms works by famous Baroque composers such as Handel, Vivaldi, Rameau and Purcell for guitar and ensemble. Well-known music, but in a new guise. His musical efforts have already led to recording contracts with Sony and Deutsche Grammophon.

Wired - Nieuw Amsterdams Peil

'Friday the Thirteenth, March 1970' wrote the American composer George Crumb on his score when he finished Black Angels. The subtitle 'Thirteen Images from the Dark Land' refers to the war in Vietnam that was raging at the time. The work hit like a bomb. The electrically amplified strings grab you by the scruff of the neck, every sound of her on the string is magnified. Never before has a string quartet sounded so hellish and heavenly at the same time.
