PETER & THE WOLF (2-4) IN MUZIEKGEBOUW (KLEINE ZAAL)
by Frank Groothof & Trio Tripletov
Peter and the Wolf by Russian composer Prokofiev should be mandatory for
every child: a captivating fairy tale with marvelous music. In this

the music.

13:30
L’HISTOIRE DU SOLDAT (6+) IN MUZIEKGEBOUW (GROTE ZAAL)
by Insomnio
Stravinsky’s masterpiece L’Histoire du Soldat is based on an old Russian
folk tale about a Russian soldier who can trade in his violin for a
book that can predict the future and make you very rich. The soldier
gives in to the temptation and the question remains: did he sell his
soul? Ensemble Insomnio will perform the music. The Emmy Award-winning
animation film by cartoonist Robert Blechman will be screened during the
performance.

14:30
ESTAFEST (10+) IN BIMHUIS
Mete Erker sopraan-/tenorsax, Oene van Geel altviool, Anton Goudsmit gitaar, Jeroen van Vliet piano
Estafest is a singular jazz group, with its unusual combination of saxophone, viola, electric guitar and piano. These four gentlemen like to do things their own way. For example, the viola player likes to take up the cajon, a wooden hand percussion box. ‘They play together like dancing swallows’, says de Volkskrant about these four guys, who have all won important awards. For example, viola player Oene van Geel, guitarist Anton Goudsmit and pianist Jeroen van Vliet have all received the Boy Edgar Prize, the most important jazz award in The Netherlands.

Tip: After the concert there is a DJ at the Bimhuis cafe and there
will be various musical activities in the whole building for children of all
ages.
