This concert is the result of two days full of unexpected encounters and experimentation between Yoràn, international students from the Amsterdam Conservatory and musical newcomers.

He is one of the most productive musicians of the moment and has released no fewer than six albums in rapid succession over the past five years.

Unique Dvořák Maximilian Hornung & friends

Antonin Dvořák’s lyrical Cello Concerto: known among cellists as the ultimate cello concerto. Five cellos sing the famous piece in an arrangement by Paul Handschke. Moreover, the piece is shown with an entirely new dimension in this arrangement, which shines a light on an array of details easy to miss in the original music. The same effect can be seen in Tchaikovsky’s warm-blooded and romantic Serenade, in an arrangement for four cellos. Join us at Muziekgebouw aan 't IJ.

Simon Pierre, Lucile Boulanger + Olivier Fortin with Grace, panache, fantasy

Trio sonatas for viola da gamba, violin and harpsichord. This sober description does not do justice to the sumptuous repertoire. In the Muziekgebouw on February 17.

Oster-Oratorium

Flemish Radio Choir, PRJCT Amsterdam and Maarten Engeltjes play Bach's Easter oratorio in the Muziekgebouw on April 1. Radiant trumpets set the tone, and jubilant soloists add to the rejoicing, especially when countertenor Maarten Engeltjes and great soloists like Sophie Junker and Fabio Trümpy perform.

City Life Asko|Schönberg

Steve Reich’s work has a pulse that lends itself ideally to translating the atmosphere of a metropolis into music. For City Life, he hit the streets to record the sounds of New York. Conversations, car horns and car alarms, a pile driver, slamming doors, and a heart beating. Played on samplers, they form the foundation of Reich���s ode to the city. He conjures up New York, in its unflappable vastness and its hecticness.

Canto and Karmit North Netherlands Orchestra + Pieter van Loenen

The Dutch-Israeli Karmit Fadael will present a violin concerto with Pieter van Loenen and the North Netherlands Orchestra in the Muziekgebouw on April 11. This special concert, which also returns to Fadael's Frisian roots, interweaves her innovative music with works by Anders Hillborg and the legendary Canto Ostinato by Simeon ten Holt. It promises to be a compelling evening, rich in musical stories and emotions.

God’s own musicians by Insomnio

Birdsong: nature’s most elusive song has inspired musicians for centuries. On 21 March in the Muziekgebouw, Utrecht-based ensemble Insomnio revisits two brilliant 21st-century pieces in which birdsong plays the leading role.

But I like to sing ... Carolyn Sampson + Joseph Middleton

Carolyn Sampson is ‘the best British early music soprano by quite some distance’ according to Gramophone. But she is also one of the most in-demand lieder singers in the world, together with pianist Joseph Middleton, with whom she enjoys a close-knit collaboration. It is, therefore, high time for a concert in the Great Singers series by Sampson, whose voice bears some resemblance to her idol, Elly Ameling. This ‘voice to fall in love with’ (NRC) effortlessly travels through three hundred years of song history.

Brentano String Quartet + Hsin Yun Huang - Mozart, MacMillan, Brahms

Explore the rich history of quintets at The Muziekgebouw on 31 January. From Mozart's dedication to publisher Hoffmeister to Brahms breaking his promise of retirement with the captivating Second String Quintet, each piece unfolds a unique narrative. Delve into the symphonic design of Brahms' work and MacMillan's exploration of quintet possibilities. Witness how these relationships with publishers and life promises shaped the evolution of chamber music.

Ikeda: music for strings - Ensemble Modern

Three new acoustic works by Japanese visual artist Ryoji Ikeda. Unplugged concert experience. The renowned Japanese visual artist and composer gained global acclaim for his kaleidoscopic sound sculptures, where electronics and new technology take centre stage. Expect a dynamic performance: Ikeda, a master at blending visual and acoustic media, creates a ritualistic experience where sound and stage imagery converge.

Marc Ribot��s Ceramic Dog
