Het Orkest Amsterdam on tour
In 2026, our orchestra will embark on a domestic tour, visiting beautiful Friesland. The birthplace of Jan Jacob Slauerhoff, Atje Keulen-Deelstra, Ferry Doedens, Cissy van Marxveldt, Gerrit Hiemstra, Doutzen Kroes, Epke Zonderland, and of course, our own Jacob Slagter!
We'll perform Anton Bruckner's monumental Sixth Symphony, a highlight and rarely performed in Friesland. We'll also perform a world premiere, a new work by Frisian composer Hoite Pruiksma. It's a symphonic poem on Ukrainian themes.
We are giving three concerts in Friesland:
March 13, 8:00 PM in Franeker (Martini Church)
March 14, 8:00 PM in Leeuwarden (Great or Jacobin Church)
March 15, 3:00 PM in Bolsward (Martini Church)
We will also perform this program on March 29th, in the Duif in Amsterdam.
