You will hear more and experience more during RO NOW, in which we immerse you briefly and powerfully in the most beautiful symphonic music. Presenter Christiaan Kuyvenhoven, together with the orchestra, will give you stimulating examples and explanations beforehand. This will give you an insight into the special compositions we play. The concert itself? Music that surprises, moves, and stays with you. After the concert, be sure to linger in the foyer, where live music, a drink on the house, and a cozy atmosphere will round off the evening.

Le Sacre du printemps, written for the Ballets Russes, is undoubtedly Igor Stravinsky's most famous composition—not Last because the premiere of this ballet is known as the biggest scandal in classical music history. With a large orchestra, we will make this revolutionary, rhythmic composition burst from the stage. You have to experience it live. And also a world premiere of the Piano Concerto by Willem Jeths, avant-gardist and storyteller from our own soil. His compositions are rich in contrasts and sometimes contain unexpected, almost surreal elements. A perfect combination and a real treat for your weekend.

Willem Jeths' Piano Concerto was made possible in part by Performing Arts Fund NL.

In collaboration with Festival Dag in de Branding.
