Chiel Meijering: Kwispelgerst

The Keuris Quartet was founded in Amsterdam in 2013 and is named after the Dutch composer Tristan Keuris (1946-1996), whose oeuvre contains two highlights of the contemporary repertoire for saxophone quartet. The main goal of the quartet is to bring contemporary music to a wider audience by placing their program in a context that makes it easy to perceive the music and its emotions. During this picnic concert, the Keuris Quartet will play exciting new music by, among others, Amsterdam composers.

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.
