Symphonic Cinema presents FIREBIRD hosted by Entrée & Concertvrienden

Dream world

On a stage-filling screen, in the intimate setting of the Kleine Zaal of Het Concertgebouw, the magical-realistic and sensory story of Emperor Kashkei unfolds. Trapped in memories of his deceased wife, he lives in a dream world of desire and regret. His daughter, gifted with magical powers, forces him to face the truth and let go of his past.

Symphonic Cinema

Symphonic Cinema is an innovative art form in which film and live music come together in a unique way. A specially made silent film moves along with the music and is adjusted live during the performance by filmmaker and creator Lucas van Woerkum. This creates a dynamic interplay between image and sound, in which sometimes the film and sometimes the music takes the lead. Each performance is different and offers an immersive experience that surprises the audience time and time again.
