Kris Oelbrandt by cellist Mischa Maisky

Composer Kris Oelbrandt was commissioned by the Dominican Monastery to write a new work on confession. It takes its title – “The Crack” – from the well-known Leonard Cohen song: “There is a crack in everything, that’s how the light gets in.”

The piece will premiere on October 6, the day after the Day of Atonement in Judaism, by world famous cellist Mischa Maisky. In addition to its music, the Oneiros Ensemble plays the moving “Kol Nidrei” and there is a dialogue between a Christian and Jewish thinker around the question: how do you find reconciliation?

When you think of Indonesia, the spicy scents of the oriental kitchen probably come to mind. But perhaps also wajang puppets, chirping monkeys swinging through the jungle, or a volcano that could erupt at any moment. Or the traditional dances in beautiful clothing.

Jan-Peter de Graaff: Hagar, an opera in 4 scenes

On Thursday, May 15th, the Nederlandse Reisopera presented its upcoming season with a brand new opera.  A bold and creative partnership between composer Jan-Peter de Graaff and librettist Eleanor Barlow, Hagar is a daring, modern and fiercely human reimagining of the ancient tale that explores resilience, scandal, and consequence.
