24 June 2012 Concert Henk Neven en Hans Eijsackers

I’ve never been very good at lobbying. But, when we were at the opening of the Storioni Trio festival at their invitation and heard Henk Neven sing, we decided to throw caution to the wind and raced over to Hans Eijsackers, who had just accompanied him on the piano. We – i.e. Suzanne, who in addition to everything else she does, also organises the concerts, and myself – decided to use (or abuse, if you will) the fact that we knew Hans in order to initiate a conversation with Henk. We succeeded and, in my opinion, it was a pleasant conversation. I remember asking if we were allowed to make requests if they were to perform at our location. The conclusion at the time was that it would have to be exuberant songs about and while enjoying food and drink. But, as far as I know, that idea has now changed. If you enjoy song, I’d make sure to be there and, if not, I’d also recommend it, if only for the opportunity to fall in love…

Highlights this year include the world premiere of Marijn Simons’ 4th Symphony, Bach’s Matthäus Passion with the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra last January, recitals in London (Wigmore Hall), Scotland and the Netherlands and Papageno in Die Zauberflöte with Opéra de Marseille.
