Calliope Tsoupaki: O zuyderste lucht

In the program O zuyderste Lucht, the Amsterdam Cantorij sings a cappella works by Dutch composers. This includes big names such as Jan Pieterszoon Sweelinck and Hendrik Andriessen, but also lesser-known ones such as Cornelis Padbrué and Calliope Tsoupaki.

Tsoupaki, ‘Composer Laureate’ from 2018 to 2021, wrote the work from which the title of the program is derived. The theme of ‘air’ also returns in Dämmerung by Diepenbrock and De nevel dekt ons by Verhulst. In addition to works for the entire choir, there will also be pieces for just a male or female choir, by Badings and Manneke.

A varied program that draws attention to the richness of more than four centuries of Dutch choral music.
