A sophisticated, accessible and varied theatrical concert that Shane van Neerden presents here. A work by Rick van Veldhuizen forms the heart of this programme. Various image and text projections and spoken text guide you like a lantern through music by Van Veldhuizen, Debussy, Skrjabin and Ives.

This concert involves a special composition commission written for two pianos: a traditional concert grand piano and a buffet piano in a completely newly developed, pure tuning. The use of spoken textin Veldhuizen's piece adds an extra layer to the concert's versatility. Texts will also be incorporated into the concert at other moents, like a fine thread in a fabric. The texts used will guide you through the afternoon to get closer to the music.
