This Saturday, November 14th at 14:00 I will be playing Messiaen's Quartet for the End of Time at the Gemeentemuseum Den Haag with Ellen Corver, Jasper Grijpink, and Sietse-Jan Weijenberg. The concert is inspired by their exhibit (see photo!) "Kleur Ontkend", which is really worth seeing.
As always the concert is free with entry to the museum and will feature a display of some instruments which we've selected from their huge collection currently in storage. This time is instruments from India and Indonesia.
Special thanks to Dag in de Branding_Festival voor Nieuwe Muziek for their help with organizing this event!‘Kleuren moeten vooral optimaal in dienst staan van expressie’, aldus Henri Matisse. In 1905 maakt de kunstenaar een cruciale ontwikkeling door. In het Zuid-Franse havenplaatsje Collioure schildert hij kleur zoals nooit tevoren. Deze doorbraak komt niet uit de lucht vallen. Conservator Frouke van Dijke schreef er een blog over: www.gemeentemuseum.nl/organisatie/blogs/de-kleuren-van-matisse
Tot en met 3 januari 2016 te zien in de tentoonstelling ‘Kleur ontketend’.
