On four wednesday evenings in february of last year, Corrie van Binsbergen presented a spectacular series of literary concerts at the Bimhuis with Remco Campert, Toon Tellegen, Manon Uphoff and Kees van Kooten. They recited from their own work while behind, over, under and in between their words, Van Binsbergen’s group of eleven musicians played her compositions. This surprising and succesful combination resulted in a Dutch theater tour that now finishes at the Bimhuis with all four writers in a ‘best of’ concert.
