Ticket sales 12th Pianoduo Festival Amsterdam started!
After an unforgettable summer full of musical adventures, we are enormously looking forward to the 12th edition of the Pianoduo Festival Amsterdam! From October 17 to 20 you can once again enjoy the most beautiful and varied piano duo music. Ticket sales have started now!
We have programmed the 12th festival around the theme “We've got rhythm,” referring to the importance of rhythm in piano playing in all genres of music, from classical to trance and from music for children to Argentine folk. We go from Ravel's Spanish rhythms and Balinese polyrhythms to the celebratory pulse of Argentine folk and jazz, from the rousing rhythms of Bohemian folk music to the repetitive patterns of minimal music and trance.
We welcome top international duos like Nathalia Milstein & Giuseppe Guarrera and promising duo talent like Duo Morgan & Van Nee. We dive into the world of Bohemian music with Czech duo Kalábová & Gugg during our high tea concert and delight local residents with our free neighborhood concerts in, among other places, community center De Rietwijker in Amsterdam-Noord. Our youngest audience will be surprised during our funny and exciting family concert Peter & the Wolf, and if you like adventure and relaxation, come to our Lying Listening concerts with new music by the up-and-coming composer Thomas van Dun. So there is something for everyone!
Very much looking forward to seeing you in October!
With musical regards,
Lestari and Gwylim
