20:30 - 21:45Minimal Extravaganza!

Immerse yourself in the wonderful world of minimal music! In it, piano duo Scholtes & Janssens explores all extremes. From the world premiere of "Dark Lights," a work written especially for the festival by young Dutch composer Thomas van Dun, to Satie's minimalist Gnossienes for two pianos. From the layered, meditative music of Arvo Pärt to the "virtuoso minimalism" of Kate Moore. Also taking place on festive evening is the release of the latest album by Piano Duo Scholtes & Janssens featuring Canto Ostinato by Simeon ten Holt. This concert will take place at De Amstelkerk.
